shall have side slopes of one and one-half feet horizontal
to one foot vertical, and be fourteen feet wide on top at
grade for single track, or of such other width as the
Engineer may direct.
When the embankment is composed partly of rock
filling and partly of earth filling, the rock hall be depos=

Engineer, and carried up as high as may be directed by him.
When the embankment shall be composed entirely of rock
filling, the width on top at grade line will vary at the
option of the Engineer, from twelve to fifteen feet, and
the side slopes will be generally one and one-quarter
feet horizontal to one foot vertical, or if protected by
rip-rap wall, slopes of one "foot"[crossed out] to one will be made.
When the base of the embankment is below low water,
