La Londe, Jr., professor in Civil Engineering at the Newark College of Engineering who has assisted greatly by reading the thesis, ad giving valuable suggestions. Acknowledgment is also made to the following: Armco Manufacturers Association; Mr. Harry H. Blee, Chief, Division of Airports, Department of Commerce; Messrs. Henry V.
