Pisa to Battle
Sag of Centuries
The Leaning Tower of Pisa
will get a $3.2 million foot
lifting during the next four
years—to keep the lean right
where it is.
Engineers and geologists are
concerned that otherwise the
leaning tower, increasing its
tilt by a quarter -inch every 10
years, may become the topp-
ling tower by the year 2100.
Prof. Letterio Donato of the
University of Pisa civil engi-
neering faculty outlined an
elaborate stabilization project
at the end of a recent national
hydraulic and geodetic conven-
tion.
The plan is aimed at keep-
ing the eight -story white mar-
ble Tuscan Tower permanently
tipped 16 feet off center—as it
is now.
STEPS LISTED
Professor Donato made a
series of subterranean soundings
with electronic equipment a
few years ago. On the basis of
those findings' and further study
by experts, the new program
calls for:
1. Sinking two huge steel
screens into the unstable soil
from opposite sides of the
famous bell tower at a distance
of 150 feet. The idea is to
keep the ground perfectly still
during successive stages.
• 2. Planting eight pneumatic
caissons in an outer ring 185
feet from the tower at a depth
of 36 feet below sea level.
Each caisson will be 53 feet
square.
3. Removing the old sup-
porting soil under the tower as
far out as the steel screens,
taking out an accumulation of
concrete and rubble shoved
underneath during the centuries
in an effort to stop the steadily
increasing lean.
4. Replacing the earth and
building a new foundation un-
der the tower according to
modern techniques of sub-
structural engineering.
PAST RECALLED
Pisa straddles the river Arno.
In the middle ages Pisa was
a powerful maritime republic
that rivaled Genoa, Lucca,
Amalfi and Venice.
Pisa was six miles closer to
the sea in those days — before
accumulations of silt from the
flowing Arno pushed the sea
farther west.
The tower was begun on this
deceptive terrain in 1174 by
Bonanno Pisano. When he saw
his tower leaning dangerously
he tried to correct the tilt by
straightening the successive
stories, As a result the tower
has a bend in it, as well as a
lean.
The last three stories plus a
belfry, were added in 1350 —
when the tower was already 10
feet off the perpendicular.
Legend says that Galileo Ga-
lilei, most famous alumnus of
the University of Pisa, climbed
to the top and dropped objects
off the downslope to test his
theories on the laws of free -
falling objects.
EVEN WIND WATCHED
The Pisani supposedly have
always been grateful for the
wind that blows in from the
sea — against the lean. They
used to joke about where the
tower would be now if the
wind blew from the other side.
Before World War ll nearly
900 tons of concrete were pump-
ed into holes dug under the
low side of the tower in an ef-
fort to stop the increasing lean,
The rate of lean slowed con-
siderably until artillery shell-
ing in 1944 caused shock waves
that started the process all over
again.
New Yorker (at Niagara
Falls) I bet you haven't any-
thing like this in Texas.
Texan: Nope, but we got
plumbers who can fix it.
WILD ANIMALS GAIN
FROM CIVILIZATION
The coming of the white
man to North America haa,
meant the near -destruction of
whole species of animals, such
as the bison, elk and beaver.
However, other species, not-
ably the woodchucks and rabbits
are now more plentiful than
they were before the coming,
the Europeans. Greater supply
food, particularly plantsgrown
by man, is responsible.
