Chase Engineers Architect HE six photographs reproduced in this insert and the cross sectional drawing on the back of the insert show two striking examples of Pond Truss roof and the correct application of Lupton Products to obtain maximum results in light and ventilation in two malleable iron foundries. The Erie Malleable Iron Co.’s foundry, which is shown in the cross section, 1s 267 feet wide by 360 feet long. The Moline Malleable Iron Co.’s building is 128@ feet wide by 27534 feet long. In each building the Pond Trusses are located over floor areas where greatest heat is developed, and the slopes of the roof lead the heat and gases directly to the lines of Pond Continuous Sash in each side of the Truss, through which they pass outside of the building. At low points in the roof, over floor areas where no heat is developed, as over the flask storage and cleaning bay, other lines of Pond Continuous Sash are placed, through which cold air enters the building. This use of different openings in the roof, both for the intake of cold air and the discharge of heated air, is one of the distinctive features of Pond Truss design, and makes it possible to light and ventilate buildings of extraordinary width. Side wall open- ings are also used to admit cold air; but such openings alone would be insufficient for a building of the width here shown. Messrs. Hunting & Davis Erie Malleable Iron Co.

Our Engineering Department codperates with owners, architects and engineers in working out the most suitable construction for each individual case. No charge is made for this service. No industrial building is merely “four walls and a roof.’ Each type of building and each mode of use imposes its own requirements as to lighting, weather protection, tem- perature control and air renewal. These requirements are obviously not the same in a steel mill as in a box factory. A power house requires wholly different treatment from a warehouse. For good results, both the type of sash and its application must be studied. We are ready to submit comprehensive drawings without charge, showing the most effective roof formation, types of sash with necessary lighting and ventilating areas, and location of same, to give the best results for the particular building and its intended use. Lupton Service originated a number of special designs, such as Pond Trusses for foun- dries, forge shops, glass factories and power houses, to obtain certain results sought by our clients. These designs and their results are shown elsewhere in this catalogue. Some striking examples of special design are shown in the front insert. Among those shown on later pages may be mentioned the Malleable Iron Foundry of the General Elec- tric Company, at Erie, Pa., where nearly eight acres of single story floor space are under one roof. (See page 74.) It is obvious that in such a building ordinary wall and roof open- ings would not get rid of the heat and gases generated. The following classes of buildings are noteworthy among those presenting difficult problems in lighting and ventilation, which Lupton Service solves: Foundries Special roof design is necessary to cause air currents which will rapidly disperse heat and gases and admit adequate light over the central area. The Pond Truss (see page 70) was designed to meet this and similar conditions. Forge Shops The requirements here are similar to those in foundries, but sometimes even more exacting as to ventilation. Glass Furnaces These require special roof formation to suit arrangement of furnaces. Power Houses These require varying roof levels to create an up-draft over the boilers, also location and form of roof sash to give direct light and ventilation to firing alleys. The side walls 4 LUPTON SERVICE require a specially large and massive type of window, with operating devices to control many sash simultaneously. Machine Shops These demand an abundance of evenly distributed overhead light, particularly where small parts are manufactured. The Pond Truss form of roof, though originally designed for a different type of building, is widely used in machine shops because of its lighting and ventilating qualities. Textile Mills Ample lighting at moderate cost of construction is desired, and a type of roof ventilating sash which is weathertight when open and can be quickly controlled in long lines. For weave sheds, the sawtooth roof has been found satisfactory. Where humidors are used, special provision is required for control of ventilation to maintain moisture. Multiple Story Buildings These should have special layouts of sash panels to suit the architectural character of building. Height and position of sash should be carefully studied, to secure light in the center of floor space. Size and location of ventilating areas should fit the character of work and number of persons employed. Office Buildings Counterweighted or Counterbalanced windows are needed, with special attention given to weatherproof qualities and to architectural effect. Hospitals Ample ventilating openings are desired, with sash so arranged that screens and shades can be fitted without interfering with ventilation. Avoidance of drafts is also necessary. Lupton Steel Sash, Projected Ventilator Type, was especially designed to meet these requirements. Special Conditions We are glad to codperate with the owner, architect or engineer in every case. We should have complete data of intended use of building, its length, width, height and other dimensions, location of columns, clearances, also any special requirements to be met. We will submit drawings embodying our recommendations, to be incorporated before the finished plans are made. No charge is made for this service. Gn THe HOME OF LUPTUN SITE eid mn” - suememnene se eunea egg This building, with additions which illustration does not show, is used exclusively for the manufacture of Lupton Steel Sash. FINER TYPES OF SASH PECIAL attention is drawn to the finer types of sash shown on pages 7 to 61 of this catalogue, comprising Lupton Steel Sash, Power House Type Lupton Steel Sash, Projected Ventilator Type Lupton Steel Sash, Counterbalanced Type Lupton Steel Sash, Counterweighted Type Pond Continuous Sash, with Pond Operating Device These types were originated by us for conditions which are not satisfactorily met by the Factory Type of pivoted sash, and they are recommended for such special service in every case where effective light and ventilation, convenience and economy of mainte- nance, rather than low first cost, are the important considerations. They embody details, such as oxy-acetylene welded joints, putty concealed by glazing angle frames, attractive finish to both sides of sash, and unrestricted freedom in the use of shades and screens, which are in keeping with the architectural qualities of the better classes of buildings. It is a Lupton policy to provide sash which meet every practical condition, and in the wide range of choice described in this catalogue we feel that this purpose has been accomplished. LUPTON STEEL SASH Pivoted Factory Type (Patented) The term Lupton Steel Sash is applied to the Factory Type of pivoted sash, also to certain special types, namely: the Packard Type; the Projected Ventilator Type, used in schools and hospitals; the Power House Type; the Counter- balanced Type, used in factories, etc., where a finer type than the ordinary factory sash is desired; and the Counterweighted Type, used in offices, public buildings and the like. Special attention is invited to these and other finer kinds of steel sash later described. Lupton Steel Sash, Pivoted Factory Type, is characterized by certain principles which we hold to be fundamental in this type, namely: solid one-piece rolled steel members, joints which resist corrosion and do not impair es- sential strength of sash, permanently tight weathering of ventilators, and simplicity of glazing. This sash is not built to sell on its low first cost; but in ultimate economy, due to low cost of maintenance, it stands the highest. STEEL SASH DEPARTMENT Members These are made of low carbon steel specially rolled for us in solid one-piece sections, each of shape and weight to give maximum strength and stiffness. Lupton Steel Sash is much more durable than sash having built-up members, because it has no internal surfaces subject to corrosion and impossible to protect with paint. Lupton one-piece sections can be attacked by rust only from the outside, and this is readily prevented by an occasional coat of paint. While Lupton Sash avoids ineffective weight of metal, the members are amply heavy for strength. On pages 12 and 36 the various sec- tions are shown full size, with their actual thickness given. We invite comparison, by actual measurement, of Lupton Sash section thicknesses with those of other sash sections apparently similar. LUPTON FACTORY Lupton Steel Sash, made to give Daylight, are made in a Daylight Building. i LUPTON STEEL SASH Joint The joint at the intersection of the muntins is made to give greatest strength against direct wind pressure, while providing amply for wind suction. The greater the stress applied from outside, where the pressure naturally comes, the tighter is the lock of the intersecting mem- bers. In addition, the Lupton Joint gives least opportunity for entrance of moisture, and is readily protected by paint. The preservation of the straight lines of sash members appeals to all who object to the excrescent effect of a curved joint. The joints between frame members and muntins are formed by fitting the muntins into the frame membersand solidly riveting them. No loose slot and bent tongue connections are used. Ventilator The two-point weather contact of ventila- tors is illustrated on this page and page 13. The meeting surfaces are flat and parallel with the glass, permitting adjustment to a true contact when the ventilator is fitted at the factory. The fit does not depend on the accuracy of the rolled sections as where curved wing members are used. This double contact, with its enclosed dead air space, 1s continuous all around the ventilators. Sections at top and bottom provide a drip at these points. Provision is made for removal of condensation outside of sash. The perma- nently weather and windproof construction of Lupton Steel Sash ventilators has a marked value in reducing heating cost of building. The Lupton Steel Sash Pivots (patented) are shown on pages 13 and 21. They are heavy mal- leable iron, designed with shoulders which carry the weight of the ventilators and relieve the bronze pivot pins. The design is such that the weathering is preserved regardless of whether the ventilator 1s open or closed, thus preventing the usual air and water leakage at this point. For easy cleaning, the ventilators can be opened to a go degree angle.

When closed, the stay folds back against the sash and locks over a headed pin. Ventilators operated in groups one above the other are connected by double arms attached to brackets at the pivots. See illustrations, pages 8 and 21. These double arms insure exact alignment and tight closing of the upper ven- tilators without slamming and risk of breaking glass, which happens with a single arm attached to the top of ventilators. Spring catches, permitting control by chains or cords, are furnished instead of peg and stays at additional cost. For automatic closing, pivots are placed above center and ventilators are closed by gravity when the fusible link in chain melts at 150 degrees F. ‘To control ven- tilators in lines a special type of Pond Operating Device X-Arm, is furnished. See page 65. Ventilators may be located in sash where- ever desired. They should not exceed 5 feet in either width or height, nor have an area greater than 18 square feet. See page 14 for sash sizes recommended in connection with ven- tilators. The best use of ventilators is shown on page 15. For clearances required for venti- lators extending full width of sash, also for connecting arms when sash has several venti- lators each full width of sash, see page 17. Frame Members On page 12 the several Lupton Steel Sash frame members are shown. Sections ror and 108 are most commonly used. For sash set in brick or concrete walls and in steel framing we recommend Section 108. Details showing the application of these sections to various condi- tions are given on pages 18, 19 and 20. When standard mullion Sections 102 or 116 are used, Section rol is placed at the mullion jambs of sash (see F, page 13) but Section 108 may be used at the opposite jamb and at head and sill. No additional charge 1s made for using Sections ror and 108 in combination on a sash. The T-bar mullion, Section 139 (see page 18), is extensively used; the broader mullion line gives a pleasing eiect to panels of sash. Sash and Glass Sizes No single sash should contain an area greater than 70 square feet. Larger sizes are awkward to handle and hard to erect. All units of the same height are interchangeable. Re- quired widths of openings or amount of venti- lation are obtained by grouping units of differ- ent widths or having different ventilating areas. (See page 17.) Where possible, sash should be laid out for standard glass sizes. As shown on page 16, Lupton Sash are made for glass sizes from 10 to 14 inches wide and from 16 to 20 inches high. This page also gives sash measurements with Sections IoI and 108 separately and com- bined, based on different glass sizes. Page 17 shows deduction to be made from the sash sizes to ascertain wall opening size, space re- quired by mullions, and method of figuring sash dimensions from glass sizes. Directions for stacking, erecting and glazing are given on pages 10 and 11. We furnish list of glass sizes required, but assume no responsibility for errors. All glass sizes should be re-checked. See page 15 for glass sizes in ventilators. When so ordered, Lupton Steel Sash, Pivoted Factory Type, will be made to meet the re- quirements of the National Board of Fire Un- derwriters, and will bear the label of the Un- derwriters’ Laboratories. Special Types The finer kinds of Lupton Steel Sash de- scribed in the later pages embody details of construction and finish in keeping with their conditions of use and architectural appearance. These include such features as oxy-acetylene welded joints, putty concealed by glazing angle frames, attractive finish to both sides of sash, arrangement permitting unobstructed use of shades and screens, etc. While these sash pre- sent the highest development in design and construction, their cost 1s not excessive, and they are especially economical when mainte- nance is considered. Specification For practicability and durability of construc- tion, best results in light and ventilation, and for economical first cost and minimum maintenance, specify Lupton Steel Sash of the desired type.

Do not lay sash flat or pile one upon another. Erecting, Angles of wall opening must be true go de- grees. Set and carefully level sash. Put block- ing wedges only directly under jambs as shown. See that horizontal muntins line up exactly with those in adjoining sash. LEAVE CLEARANCE AT HEAD AND JAMBS*SO THAT, VENTIPATORS ew OPEN-FREEVYe Ventilators are wired to sash and braced by wood blocks; do not remove these till sash are completely set. When two ventilators occur in a sash, the arms connecting them must be attached and adjusted after sash are set. Lintels over sash must carry walls without deflecting any part of their load on the sash. Glazing Glazing is done after sash are built into the walls; the work 1s done from the inside. Each light is held by two Lupton Glazing Wedges (Patented), which are forced down till the flat surface engages the glass and the sloped edge fits tightly against the double-headed rivet. Only two wedges per light are required; each gives continuous flat bearing of 3% inches against the glass and prevents breakage from expansion. The tapered edge makes the wedge self-adjusting to varying thicknesses of glass. No tool is required; the rivets are placed in the sash at the factory, hence the glazing operation is very rapid and inexpensive. PilViO fe Der a Cr ORY “fry PE Glass should be carefully back puttied, and putty should also be applied inside and beveled back. Ordinary putty does not give good results. We recommend Lupton Special Putty, which makes a permanent bond. Note that the border lights in ventilators are smaller than other lights; see page 15. We furnish lists of glass sizes on request, but do not assume responsibility for errors. All lists should be rechecked. Fittings Lupton Steel Sash are given a thorough coat of paint at the factory, and are shipped with complete standard hardware, including pivots / 5 _ ey bag. a Lf Mr. Clark Dillenbeck Chief Engineer and peg stays for ventilators. Lupton Glazing Wedges and necessary wall ties are furnished in sufficient number. Standard mullions and mul- lion bolts are included when required. ‘T-bar mullions, when wanted, should be specified. We do not furnish expansion bolts. Ordering When ordering Lupton Steel Sash, use correct stock numbers, specify frame member wanted and location of ventilators. If mullions are re- quired, state whether standard or T-bar mul- lions are wanted.

These ventilated sash may be used in connection with larger stationary sash, as desired. Ventilators should not exceed 5 feet in width or 5 feet in height, nor contain an area exceeding 18 square feet. Ventilators may be located in sash where desired, but location should be clearly stated when ordering sash. Where two or more ventilators occur in a sash they are connected by double arms, which operate all ventilators in unison and prevent glass breakage. Explanation of Stock Numbers In the stock numbers above the first letter gives the glass size; as, A indicates 10 by 16 inch lights, B indi- cates 12 by 18 inch lights, and C indicates 14 by 2c inch lights. When glass sizes other than these are wanted use the letter O and give required glass size immediately after the complete stock number. The first of the two numerals following the glass size letter gives the number of lights in width and the second the number of lights in height con- tained in the sash. For example: ASg indicates a sash unit taking ro by 16 inch glass, five lights wide and nine lights high, without ventilation. The letter following the numer- als shows how many ventilators are in the sash—A calls for one ventilator, B for two, C for three. The numeral following any of these letters indicates the number of lights in each ventilator. Thus, Type Bs58AgQ is a sash five lights wide by eight lights high, taking 12 by 18 inch glass, equipped with one ventilator of nine lights. If two ventilators of six lights each were required, Type B58B6 would be used. Type O48C8 (12 by 20 inches) describes a sash four lights wide by eight lights high, taking 12 by 20 inch glass and equipped with three ventilators of eight lights each. The location of the ventilators in the sash should always be stated. See page 16 for over-all sizes of standard sash units taking different glass sizes. Glass Sizes in Ventilators The glass in the top and bot- tom rows of lights occurring in ventilators are 7% inch shorter, and the two side rows of lights are 7% inch narrower, than other A XK ieos Wesel A lights in a sash. Internal lights J in ventilator are the same size \/ as those in sash. [The reduction aN in size of border lights is due to / “ space taken up by weathering / . members around ventilator (see details page 13). The four cor- A [aT a Ta ]a ner lights in a ventilator will be 7% inch less in both height and width, while other border lights will be reduced 7 inch in one dimension only—either in height or width, according to their location.

This method of operating assures control of both ventilators in alignment, eliminating glass breakage caused by slamming the lower ventilator in order to close the upper one, as when ventilators are connected by a single arm. Phantom view of Lupton Pivot (Patented). Lupton Pivots are made of heavy malleable iron and are provided with a shoulder which carries the entire weight of the ventilator, re- lieving the bronze pin from any strain. The pivots are attached directly to the muntins (Section 100), not to the weathering members. There are no apertures permitting entrance of rain and cold air where these pivots are placed, as their con- struction preserves the weathering. These features are to be found only in the Lupton Pivot. fi ‘i f et i Brass spring catches with steel chains are furnished instead of peg and stays only when specified and at an additional cost. The catch is applied at the top of the ventilator and the opposite end of the chain is carried over a roller and attached to the bottom of the ventilator. We provide holes for these fittings, which must be applied after sash are built in walls. Peg and stay, in closed position, folds back against sash and locks ven- tilator.

LUPTON STEEL SASH FOR SCHOOLS, HOSPITALS AND OFFICE BUILDINGS This type of sash was first de- signed for hospitals, to afford maxi- mum ventilation without direct draft and without interference with shades and screens. The ventilators are operated by sliding arms working in grooves at sides. The arms hold the ventilators top, and no part projects past the outside of sash. Screens may be applied outside, and individual shades attached to the inside of each ventilator. The sash have the moulded face of the members inside and the glaz- ing frames outside. Ventilators have double weathering and are accu- rately fitted. Joints are oxy-acetylene welded. Glass is held by glazing angle frames which conceal putty. : : : Lupton Steel Sash, Projected Ven- Suitable hardware is provided.

Lupton Steel Sash, Projected Ventilator Type, have been substituted for certain windows in the Ophthalmic Ward of the Jefferson Hospital, Philadelphia, with highly satisfactory results. DETAILS ARE ONE-HALF FULL SIZE Wilt, \ Sd Ws \ SSS Ss Mullion Jamb Horizontal Section LUPTON STEEL SASH Power House Type (Patented, and Patents Pending) Lupton Steel Sash, Power House Type, is distinguished by the following features: 1. The openings are subdivided by mullions and imposts of unusual width, giving a massive appearance in harmony with the architecture of the building; 2. All the sash are pivoted, except those having curved heads; 3. All the sash in each wall are usually operated simultaneously, thereby producing a uniform appearance which adds greatly to the dignity of the building. Frames In proportioning the imposts and mullions the proper relation of vertical to -horizontal lines is carefully observed, the mullions being broader and the imposts being of two widths, with the wide impost where the arch joins the vertical lines of the frame. ~The frame, imposts and mullions are formed of 12 gauge steel plate. For convenience in erecting, the frame is divided horizontally into sections at the imposts, each section contain- ing one or more rows of sash, and the members forming the imposts being bolted together on erection. This is done to facilitate handling. The units are completely assembled at the factory to test the correctness of their fit. Sash All sash members are heavy one-piece rolled steel sections and are solidly oxy-acetylene welded at the joints. All except the stationary sash are constructed with double weathering on both sides, and are hung on Lupton Pivots, which preserve the weathering unbroken. The sash are set in reveals formed in the frames and are held by continuous angles. Glazing Angle Frames Glazing frames, made of light angles which conceal putty and give a pleasing finish to the inner face of the sash, are furnished when speci- fied. This method of glazing is in keeping with the construction and finish of Lupton Steel Sash, Power House Type, and the additional cost of the frames is well warranted.

POWER HOUSE’ TYPE These specially designed windows consist of Pond Continuous Sash units hinged at the top and controlled by Pond Operating Device. This use of Pond Sash for a power house window is particularly effective because of the strength of the heavy members and the welded assembly, the simplicity of construction and the weatherproof feature of this type of sash. The tiers of sash are connected as shown in the upper left-hand illustration and are controlled simultaneously by Pond Operating Device. Mr. W. B. Mayo Mechanical and Construction Engineer y NN ea Ford Motor Company Detroit, Mich. LUPTON STEEL SASH Counterbalanced Type (Patents Pending) Lupton Steel Sash, Counterbalanced Type, has the upper and lower sash balanced over a pair of pulleys, so that the upper sash descends as the lower sash is raised. It is to be carefully distinguished from Lupton Steel Sash, Counterweighted Type, in which each sash is balanced by its own pair of weights. We originated Lupton Steel Sash, Counterbalanced Type, to fill a well-defined require- ment for a sliding sash window of heavy construction which gives greater ventilating area than the average pivoted sash, and which, by not projecting into the building, pre- cludes any interference with cranes or with the use of shades and screens, and offers no obstruction to machines or men working close to the windows. The value of this type was shown by its immediate adoption, not only in strictly in- dustrial buildings, but also in publishing and loft buildings, and others occupied largely by clerical workers. Lupton Steel Sash, Counterbalanced Type, is built to fill openings of any desired size, standard glass sizes being disregarded. Window units are made up to 7 feet wide and 18 feet high; units may be used singly or in multiple. We recommend that openings be divided to take units as nearly 6 feet wide as possible. Large windows are operated as easily as smaller ones, and both first cost and maintenance are less for equal area. Up to and including 12 feet in height, windows are two sash high, giving practically 50% ventilating area. From 12 to 18 feet high three sash are used, the middle sash being stationary. This gives about 66% ventilating area. Since the ventilating areas are always equal at the top and bottom of the windows, the most effective air circulation is obtained. No horizontal muntins are used unless specified. Their omission makes a better ap- pearance and simplifies glass cleaning. It has been found in actual practice that there is less breakage with large lights, because breakage is due almost entirely to carelessness, and men are more careful when working near windows glazed with large lights.

Mills, Rhines, Bellman & Nordhoff Willys-Overland Company, Forge Shop Architects Toledo, Ohio Pond Continuous Sash is extensively applied to side wall openings because of the large area of ventilation given and because it is weather tight when open. Sash is controlled by Pond Operating Device, either in long lines or by an individual device for the sash in each bay, as desired. Hydraulic Pressed Steel Company Cleveland, Ohio The maximum amount of light and weather-protected ventilation in this building are supplied by Pond Con- tinuous Sash, controlled by Pond Operating Device, in side walls and Pond Truss. This building can be made practically open, yet weather cannot enter. 5g POND*YCONTINUOUS SASH Pond ‘‘A”’ Frame 60 The Pond ‘“‘A”’ Frame, shown by the two in- stallations, was originally designed for a court skylight on the Canadian Locomotive Com- pany’s plant at Kingston, Ont., where abundant light and ventilation were required with limited roof area. It has since been widely used by the Willys-Overland Company, American Brass Com- pany, Domestic Engineering Company, Pennsyl- vania Railroad and other large corporations. The Willys-Overland Company, after trying it for court ventilation, is now using it on many fac- tories and service stations for roof lighting instead of the conventional sawtooth construction. It enables the entire roof area it covers to be used for light and ventilation. The Pond “A” Frame is also used as a cold air supply for large buildings in connection with the Pond Truss. When so used the Pond “A” Frames are located in low sections of the roof, and the Pond Truss is located with its outlets over the points of greatest heat. See Pond Truss, page 70. This makes it entirely practical to construct one-story buildings of any width and length which will be amply lighted and venti- lated throughout the entire area. POND CONTINUOUS SASH Pivoted Type Comparison We recommend Pond Continuous Sash, top hung, and make the Pivoted Type only when required. Snow and rain strike this sash when open and are blown over the top, while the top hung type is weatherproof under all conditions and is easily controlled by Pond Operating Device in long lines, with the varying load of the sash offset by spirals and counterweights. The Pivoted Type increases the cost of the building by reason of the additional steel re- quired for the roof cantilever and for contin- uous members to which sash is pivoted. We can demonstrate that better ventilating results, under all weather conditions, are obtained by the use of Pond Continuous Sash, top hung. First Installation The original installation of Pond Continuous Sash, Pivoted Type, was 70,000 square feet, furnished by us in 1909 for the Pullman Com- pany,in their steel freight car plant at Pullman, Illinois. Specification Malleable pivots with bronze pins are used, and all other features, including welded joints and sections, are the same as for top hung sash shown on preceding pages. Mr. W. E. Wood Construction Engineer Ford Motor Works Extension to Machine Shop Detroit, Mich. Interior view of installation of Pond Continuous Sash, Pivoted Type 61 POND OPERATING DEVICE (Patented by Clarke P. Pond, and Patents Pending) Pond Operating Device controlling line of Wood Sash At the American Sheet and Tin Plate Company’s plant, Gary, Ind., Pond Oper- ating Device controls ten lines of wood sash, each 1050 feet long. Each line 1s easily operated its entire length by a hand chain. Power Idler OPERATING GEAR AND TRANSMISSION BRACKET used at opposite ends of each line of sash Pond Operating Device is different in principle from any other operating device. Phosphor bronze bearings and immersed gears insure permanent working conditions. 62 POND OPERATING DEVICE (Patented by Clarke P. Pond, and Patents Pending) Pond Operating Device is designed to effectively operate long or short lines of top hung, horizontally or vertically pivoted, and horizontally sliding sash. Power is transmitted by tension, and the arms are designed to give maximum leverage when the sash load 1s greatest. This load varies according to the type of sash. In pivoted sash the load is greatest at the moment of opening, when the sash are in contact at all sides with the frames, and is least at the widest degree of opening, when the upper part of the sash swing- ing in counterbalances the lower part swinging out. In top hung continuous sash the load must be lifted by the device, and it greatly increases as the angle of sash opening becomes wider. Pond Operating Device provides the various types of arms and operating gears which best meet such conditions; but the principle of operation, that of tension trans- mission of power and the application of power to the sash by correctly compounded levers, together with machine cut steel gears running in oil, phosphor bronze bushings in hinged connections and the elimination of friction, are found in all types of Pond Operating Device. Mechanism sash are opened to their maximum extent. Be- cause of the compounding leverage of the arm movement, the load on the hand chain in- creases only 30 per cent as fast as the sash load increases. All hinged connections throughout the de- vice are bushed with phosphor bronze bearings to ensure durability. The worm gear of Pond Operating Device 1s strongly proportioned and machine cut from solid steel, enclosed in a dustproof case and immersed in oil. The gear locks the sash in any position, preventing slamming and break- age of glass. The tension transmission lines consist of steel rods in 20 foot lengths with hot headed ends, connected by malleable barrel coup- Width of Opening lings.

Pond Operating Device is guaranteed to con- trol longer lines of sash and give a greater width of opening with less power applied to the hand chain than any other device. Spirals and Counterweights Spirals and counterweights are recommended to balance the load when top hung continuous sash are to be controlled in long lines. This equipment is substituted for the idler pulley at the end of the line opposite the operating POND OPERATING DEVICE gear. The counterweight is hung on a steel cable, which passes over the spiral, as shown in the accompanying illustration. The spiral is so designed that its changing radius, as the sash open and close, increases or decreases the lever- age of the counterweight in exact proportion to the varying sash load, so that this load 1s always balanced in either direction. The coun- terweight is provided with slides and auto- matic safety device. Spirals and counterweights should be used for the operation of Pond Continuous Sash in vertical lines longer than 100 feet and in slop- ing lines longer than 50 feet. While equally long lines may be controlled without them, the load on the hand chain is unnecessarily 1n- creased and the control of the line is made arduous. They are furnished only when specifi- cally included in our proposal and at an addi- tional cost.

The motor drives through compound ball bearing worm gears cut from solid steel and immersed in oil. An auto- matic cutout 1s included, which limits the move- ment of the sash in each direction without strain on the operating device. It is arranged to open the circuit quickly to prevent arcing, although the chain itself moves slowly. The switch may be set to hold sash at any degree of opening. The motor is for alternating current, I10, 220 or 440 volts, 60 cycle, 3 phase. It is espe- cially wound for high starting torque. We do not recommend a direct current motor or guarantee the automatic cutout to operate when direct current is used. Delays in ship- ment and possible disappointment in results will be avoided by using our standard motor. 68 When the standard equipment as furnished by us 1s used, it is guaranteed against defect of design, material or workmanship for three years. This guarantee is conditioned strictly on the wiring being done exactly according to our specifications.

Glass breakage is caused by vibration or by the expansion and contraction of glass rigidly held in putty or in contact with metal. In the Lupton Skylight the glass rests between resilient strands of specially saturated oakum, which permits the glass to move under expansion and contraction. This also eliminates leakage due to drying of putty. The glass is held free from contact with any metals. Corrosion is prevented because all metal parts directly exposed to weather are copper and _ brass. There are no cross bars in the Lupton Skylight. When the slope is of such length as to require more than one light of glass, the lights are lapped 3 inches, bars and caps being offset to accommodate the lap. A valuable feature of Lupton Skylight is the simplicity and economy of its erection. All members are carefully cut to exact size, the bars and caps are offset at the factory, and the parts are shipped ready for assembly. No sheet metal workers’ tools are required, and the erection can be done by ordinary mechanics, no skilled labor being necessary.

Lupton Windows embody features giving a greater efficiency than is re- quired by the Underwriters. They not only give the most favorable insurance rating, but offer positive assurance of safety. Material Plain galvanized steel used in most windows does not come up to our standard for Lupton Windows. We use heavy gauge galvanized Keystone Metal, a copper bearing open hearth steel, showing remarkable resistance to rust and fumes. Instead of 24 gauge throughout, which the Underwriters allow, we make the frame of 22 and the sash of 24 gauge. Method of Construction Each member of the frame—head, jambs and sill—is made from a single piece of metal. These members are assembled by mortise and tenon dovetailed clinched joints. By this construction the four simple members of the frame become practically a single unit of metal and stresses due to contraction and expansion are equally distributed. Mortise and tenon joints are used also in the sash, the corners of which are accu- rately mitred and fitted. The locked joints of Lupton Windows are not affected by intense heat followed by cold water, which cause the riveted joints widely used in cheaper windows to unbutton and release members. Muntins are made of two interlocking mem- bers and present the same detail on each side. Rails and muntins give a glass bearing of 34 inch, and the mouldings are so formed that their natural tendency, when heated, is to straighten, thus holding the glass more securely instead of pulling away and releasing it. Weatherproof Qualities Complete weather tightness is secured in the double-hung windows by the beveled edge contact at head, meeting rails and sill, and the close contacts with wind break space in the jamb. Details on next page show how the sash o4: are forced in tight contact with the frames, keeping out drafts and preventing rattling. Pivoted windows have double contact weath- ering at jambs and head, and are kept tightly closed by the spring catch at the top and the gravity lock at the bottom. See details. Double-hung sash are hung on heavy steel chains running over roller bearing pulleys in dustproof cases, and are balanced by steel sec- tional weights; hook lifts and locks are also provided. Automatic closing devices are fur- nished at an additional cost when specified. Pivoted sash are provided with spring catches and chains, with fusible links and gravity locks for automatic closing in case of fire. General Lupton Windows of all types are shipped with the unglazed sash set in the frames; the glass, when furnished by us, is cut to size ready for glazing and shipped separately. The glazing is done by inserting glass down through the top of sash, carefully embedding in putty and, as each row of lights is glazed, fitting in the horizontal muntins. For segmental heads, segment should be made only in the frame, sash having square head; this is cheaper and better than if both are segmental. We recommend single window openings in preference to multiple windows and mullions. Sizes Lupton Sheet Metal Fireproof Windows are made for openings of any size; but single win- dows wider than 5 feet or higher than 9g feet will not be labeled by the Underwriters.

WALDMIRE LOUVER (Patented) Construction Waldmire Louvers are made of suitably formed slats which are vertically spaced 6 inches on centers and set in continuous lines entirely outside of all supports. The slats are made in a standard length of 10 feet and are given a lapped joint of 1% inches. This con- struction eliminates exterior posts, panels and all soldered connections. ‘The shape of the louver slats with a horizontal flange at the top assures least opportunity for entrance of rain and snow. Unless otherwise specified, Waldmire Louvers are made of 22 gauge galvanized Key- stone Metal, a copper bearing metal which shows remarkable resistance to the action of rust and fumes. Waldmire Siding For tobacco barns, drying sheds or other buildings where continuous ventilation 1s re- quired, we furnish Waldmire Siding of the same construction as the louvers but made for ver- tical spacing of 12 inches on centers. Structural Work Required Vertical supports, which may be either wood or steel, should be set on centers of 591% inches, to provide a 14-inch lapped joint for louver slats. Louvers are fastened to woodwork by spikes and ferrules, and to steel by bolts. We do not furnish any structural work for the sup- port of louvers or siding, but will submit draw- ings giving complete details and punching required. Erection Any building foreman or other mechanic can erect Waldmire Louvers and Siding with un- skilled labor; no soldering or any sheet metal worker’s tools are necessary. Comparison For practicability of construction, compare Waldmire Louvers and Siding, set in continu- ous lines outside of all structural work and without panel posts, riveted or soldered con- nections, with paneled construction, soldered or riveted to posts. For quality of material, compare 22 gauge galvanized Keystone Metal with lighter gauge galvanized steel. For com- plete cost in place, compare the cost of erecting by unskilled labor with the cost of highly paid sheet metal workers. Work Not Included We do not include any structural supports. We do not include any head or cornice mould- ings or sill aprons unless specifically called for. Specification Specify Waldmire Louvers or Siding, made of 22 gauge galvanized Keystone Metal, with continuous slats and 1'%-inch lapped joints, without rivets or soldered connections and pro- vided with spikes or bolts as required by struc- tural work.
