Zusammenfassung:Concrete cores were obtained from Waterbury Dam, Waterbury, Vt., for examination and analysis. The cores had an average compressive strength of 5790 psi which reflects that the strength of the interior concrete of the dam is excellent. The dam has more surface concrete deterioration than is indicated by the cores and core logs. The major cause of surface concrete deterioration is freezing and thawing. (Author)
