FIRE-PROOFING
It is no longer a question of experiment:—that of thoroughly protecting iron and steel structural work. Terra-cotta has proved itself superior to all other materials in use, in maintaining its original position during fire, thereby thoroughly protecting the structural work, as has been demonstrated at recent conflagrations. The forms in general use are floor arches, partition blocks, column and girder coverings, furring tile, ceiling and roofing blocks; while special forms can be made when required. Estimates for the furnishing of material, either delivered or erected, will be given; also full information in regard to plans or specifications if desired.
