Product 



A system of erecting silos of cement staves which 

 enables you to build them in any diameter and height 



at a lower cost than any other permanent silo, and a system for 



making the cement staves. 



yi . .. The machine for mak- 



UescnptlOn ing . the cerne nt staves 



is on the order of a block machine, is 



portable and is operated with the same 



ease. This machine builds staves 30 



inches long-, 10 inches wide, 2% inches 



thick with concave and convex edges 



that make perfect socket joints. 



In construction the PLAYFORD CE- 

 MENT STAVES are put up vertically, in- 

 terlocking at the half, with joints her- 

 metically tsealed and reinforced every 15 

 inches with steel hoops on the outside: 

 This makes a smooth, thin, rigid, air- 

 tight and strong enough wall to with- 

 stand load and storm pressures, and 

 frost. Open joints are allowed every 10 

 inches for expansion and contraction to 

 eliminate cracked walls from heat or 

 frost.
