<br /> 3. Migration of water rates indicate reduction in permeability
<br /> 2. The photos clearly show the beneficial effect of FIBERMESH 33%-44%at 1.5 lbs./cy.(900 grams/m3)and as high as 79%

<br /> adverse drying conditions.The above drying shrinkage data,
<br /> supported by increased strength results in conjunction with 4. Increase in splitting tensile strength would indicate in-
<br /> favorable water-retention rates, suggests that the use of crease in toughness;thereby,producing a less brittle and
