The project at Vreewijk ... was always intended as the urban expression of Ebenezer Howard’s essentially anti-urban ideology of the garden city and was intended from the first to be an extension of Rotterdam. In the first phase, based on the street plan (1913) by H.P. Berlage, Granpré Molière developed a housing typology based on the relationship between urbanism, architecture and planning. This resulted in the second phase of Vreewijk, the extension plan (1920) by Granpré Molière, Verhagen & Kok commissioned by the Eerste Rotterdamsche Tuindorp NV. A private initiative, it was nevertheless based on the belief that urbanism has not only to do with planning but also with expressing contemporary cultural and artistic ambitions, and that therefore it cannot be the result of a single person’s intentions nor those of isolated parts of society, be they the state or private initiatives. 1, record 11, English, - extension%20plan

Il est nécessaire de construire des logements qui font de plus en plus défaut mais il faut faire de Nantes une ville agréable avec des avenues larges, propres, coquettes et animées. Ainsi de nouveaux quartiers vont surgir qui contrasteront avec les anciens. De plan d'embellissement on passe au plan d'extension qui concerne un espace de 9240 hectares alors que la zone urbaine en 1920 n'est que de 2800 hectares.

L'utilité des ballons sur le champ de bataille enfin reconnue, le nombre des compagnies d'aérostiers s'accroît pour atteindre 75 en mars 1916. Chaque corps d'armée français dispose désormais de sa compagnie. La stabilité du sphérique est mauvaise. Pour pallier ce défaut on développe dès 1914 un ballon allongé de 800 m³ semblable au ballon allemand. Pour améliorer son orientation dans le vent on lui attache une queue de godets, comme à un cerf-volant. On remplace le treuil à vapeur par un treuil automobile plus rapide pour ramener le câble et plus discret sur le champ de bataille. 3, record 15, French, - treuil%20%C3%A0%20vapeur

A trade name for a heavy caterpillar-mounted continuous miner for operation in thick seams. The front end contains two cutter-arms which rotate in opposite directions to sweep the coal they cut inwards towards the centre. The broken coal is taken back through the machine to a chain conveyor. Two cutter chains are arranged at roof and floor level behind the arms to cut down the coal left between the rotating arms. The machine cuts an area 12 ft wide and 7 ft high. Power is supplied by two motors, one of 70 h.p. and the other 25 h.p. It has a continuous capacity from 3 to 3 1/2 t.p.m. This machine has been subject to several modifications. 2, record 16, English, - Marietta%20miner

Pour en finir avec les galeries en direction, décrivons une utilisation française d'une machine d'abatage et de chargement simultanés, la «Marietta». Son dispositif de coupe est constitué essentiellement par 2 bras rotatifs creusant chacun 4 saignées concentriques. Le terrain entre saignées est brisé par le passage de rouleaux biconiques libres travaillant comme «éclateurs» [...] Les bras rotatifs font deux trous cylindriques qui se recoupent légèrement. D'autre part, 2 chaînes de haveuse transforment cette section de creusement en une section rectangulaire [...] La Marietta ressemble au Colmol [...] et se meut sur chenilles, au besoin en s'aidant de deux vérins de poussée horizontaux placés à l'arrière et appuyés sur les parois. 1, record 16, French, - Marietta

Il marche bien avec une taille courte, de pente supérieure à 10°. Le scraper-rabot est une caisse dotée de couteaux qui attaquent le massif à la manière d'un rabot, mais le charbon au lieu d'être soulevé par un soc est ramené au bas de la taille par la caisse qui forme scraper. Pour cela, on le munit d'un volet mobile s'effaçant dans un sens et raclant dans l'autre.
