Characteristics of Granite.
The specific gravity of granite
ranges from 2.593 to 2.731, with an
aiqrage of 2.663—that is. it is 2.663
times as heavy as an equal volume
!of water. A cubic foot of such
; granite will weigh 166.4 pounds.
! The strength of granite is very
i great. It will ordinarily witli
j stand a pressure ot 18.000 to 84.000
j pounds to the square inch. Certain
Wisconsin granites have withstood
j crushing up to a pressure of 43.074
pounds to the square inch.
Granite is usually considered an
impervious stone, yet it will absorb
considerable moisture and a cubic
yard of granite will usually contain
about3.s gallons of water. Many
granites contain 4 or 5 per cent of
potash, which is. however, in in
soluble form.

eastern Atlantic States,” United
