CONCRETE: eee AND POSSIBIL= 
° 
Continued from first page, second column 
brick and stone are gradually giving way 
to concrete construction, and it is only a 
matter of ten years or so when 90 per 
cent of all buildings will be constructed of 
concrete. 
This form of construction has for many 
years proved to be the quickest, and is 
from 20 percent to 30 per cent cheaper 
than the steel frame construction which 
has in the past been employed for office 
buildings. At the present price of lum- 
ber, a concrete building costs only 10 per 
cent to 15 per cent more than wood, 
and with the increase in the price of lum- 
ber, and the fact that the sand and stone 
required, or a portion of it, for the con- 
crete, it to be found on or near the site 
of the building, there are many instances 
where concrete buildings have been built 
for the same cost, and in some cases for 
less than if wood had been used. 
A concrete structure grows constantly 
stronger, and intwo years gains 50 per 
cent in strength. It never deteriorates; 
it resists vibration; it is freproof, and re- 
ceives the best rates from insurance com- 
panies,—a saving of 30 to 50 per cent 
and in some cases no insurance whatever 
is carried on the building, as there is 
nothing to burn. As an example of this 
the United Shoe Machinery company 
carry no insurance on the buildings of 
their immence concrete plant in Beverly, 
oe YOESIGSE QBY 
where formerly their factories were of 
wood and brick and the insurance item 
was enormous. 
A concrete building does not necessit- 
ate_the expense of a periodical coat of 
paint; it is cool in summer and warm in 
winter; it is artistic, and lends _ itself 
readily to attractive architectural forms. 
Concrete is now used for the construct- 
ion of bridges, docks, wharfs, high office 
buildings, hotels, dwellings, factories and 
athousand other things. ‘The construct- 
ion of concrete dwelling houses is de- 
veloping rapidly, especially in the West 
and South, and has now reached New 
England, and there are several examples 
of these houses in and about Boston. 
These dwellings are built in two dif- 
ferent ways, either as a monolithic struc- 
ture, or of hollow concrete blocks. 
When constructed as a monolith, wooden 
forms or moulds conforming to the shape 
and dimensions are set up and rigidly
