Geologic interpretation of seismic data, relocation Route 1 cut, Stations 25-36 Ballard Estate in Topsfield, Mass.

This investigation was undertaken to determine the surface and subsurface conditions between stations 25 and 36 of the proposed relocation of the Newburyport Turnpike, Route 1, Topsfield, Mass. Reconnaissance seismic work was performed at the site in September 1949. Because that work showed bedrock near the surface over an extensive area where a deep cut was to be made, a more detailed program of

Geologic interpretations of seismic data, relocation of Route 116, Stations 7-135 in Cheshire, Mass.

Three segments of the proposed relocation of Route 116, stations 7 to 135, in Cheshire, Mass. require shallow cuts. For the purpose of obtaining information on the depths to bedrock, and on the nature of the overlaying materials, seismic and geologic studies were made of the segments in October 1949. The work was done as part of the cooperative program of the Massachusetts Department of Public Wor

Geologic interpretations of seismic data: Braintree-Weymouth by-pass stations 29-56, Liberty Street grade separation in Braintree, Massachusetts

At the request of the Massachusetts Department of Public Works, seismic and geologic studies were made for the projected Braintree-Weymouth By-Pass grade separation at Liberty Street in Braintree, Massachusetts. The work was performed in order to furnish data that would aid the engineers in preparing estimates of the quantity of bedrock to be excavated for this project. The study represents part o

Geologic investigation at the site of the post office building, Welch, West Virginia

Statement of Problem:   Cracking in the interior and exterior walls of the post office building at Welch, West Virginia, developed in the summer of 1947. This cracking appeared about two months after the patching of similar cracks that had developed in 1946. The Public Buildings Administration was requested to investigate the damage. They, in turn, requested the Geological Survey and the Bureau of
