The Florists^ Review 



November 30. 1916. 



The bars are firmly held lo the 

 ridge by this sleel ridge bracket, 

 which takes all the weight ami 

 strain, wiiich otherwise causes 

 toe nail splits. 



Roof bar splice plate, used at the 

 purlin. In addition to the cap 

 at the top there are two metal 

 inserts that keep the joint 

 tight, even if the ends dry out 

 and spread. 



Detail showing Giant Arch fittings. 



Throe-bolt malleable claini) fit- 

 ting. They bite into the lape, as 

 well as friction grip it. 



Purlin showing the end cap, which 

 keeps out moisture and insects.

Some Things No Other Builder Does 





JUST because one builder does things that no 

 other builder does, may be because no other 

 builder thinks they are worth doing. 



Then again some builders don't do some of the 

 things others do, because it costs too much to do 

 them, and leave the larger profit they are bound 

 to make you pay them. 



The things we do are worth doing. 



Worth it to the house. 



Worth it to you. 



In our Semi-Iron House— here are four things 

 that we do, that no other builder does: 



1. The bars are fastened to the ridge by a 

 steel bracket. 



•J. Where bars need to be spliced, it is done 

 with a special no-leak clamp tight joint. 



3. The clamp column fittings are malleable 

 iron, made to carry three bolts (not just 

 one or two). 



4. The capping over the pipe purlin end, keep- 

 ing out moisture and preventing insects from 

 lodging there. 



These are not all the things we do different. 

 .Tust some of them. For ths rest send for Special 

 Pipe Frame or Semi-Iron Circular.
