Note that if were making a geologic map, we could draw a line on the map that separates the pelitic rocks containing only Pyrophyllite from those containing Kyanite + Quartz. Such a line(a surface in 3 dimensions) is called an isograd(iso-same, grad-grade). In this case, since it represents the first appearance of Kyanite, we call it the Kyanite Isograd... If we continue walking along the direction that T & P increased in these rocks during metamorphism, we would eventually come to another place where in the pelitic rocks the mineral assemblage changes. This time the change is from Kyanite + Quartz to Sillimanite + Quartz. Again, we can draw a line on the map that indicates this change in mineral assemblage, this time calling it the Sillimanite Isograd. Just like before, this represents the point on the phase diagram, above, where the geothermal gradient intersected the boundary for the reaction... Because the sandstone and the limestone do not contain Kyanite, the isograd does not appear in these rocks, but we can still extrapolate its position across the map or outcrop. 3, record 6, English, - sillimanite%20isograd

Les talus sont commencés aux engins, mais réglés définitivement à la main. Pour ce réglage, les ouvriers doivent être guidés par les piquets d'extrémité d'emprise A et B, mais l'inclinaison des talus doit également leur être donnée. Cette inclinaison est indiquée par une planche inclinée M N clouée sur deux piquets, mais on peut aussi employer un bâti tel que celui de la figure 10, dont les branches AB et AC sont dans la proportion voulue pour l'inclinaison du talus. 3, record 24, French, - piquet%20de%20terrassement
