MR. LESLIE TURNER, who proposed a hearty vote of thanks to the authors, said he was exceedingly pleased to do so for two reasons, firstly, to congratulate them on a really useful piece of research work on concrete which had been carried out in this country; and, secondly, because he was very grateful to them for confirming his own research, to which they had kindly alluded in the paper.
