Reference: Don't know whether this helps but Reference information: The east and west abutment monoliths are each 60-feet thick with a triangular cross-section. Conversely, each of the spillway monoliths are 52-feet thick and have an ogival, or "S"-shaped, cross-section (see photograph 1). http://www.wvculture.org/shpo/nr/pdf/taylor/95000763.pdf |
