General Electric Company, Schenectady, N. Y., Laboratory A Lupton Steel Doors The seamless tube and oxy- acetylene torch make this door many times stronger for its weight than built-up doors. The tube also conceals the lock and hinges. The one-piece welded jamb and trim are made to special details when required. These doors are also made with a single metal panel without glass. Lupton welded tube doors at main entrance BY Lupton Steel Partitions Lupton Steel Partition, standard units, are easily moved and re-erected without removing glass. See details on page 39. -_ A EEE \ ‘Nw —— , Few Office arrangement is easily changed by moving the portable partition. C Lupton Steel Doors and Sash for Plaster Partitions Lupton Steel Doors and trim were used on the first four floors on account of certain laboratory requirements. Door jambs and trim are one piece, with all mitered joints welded. Doors and jambs are all welded in one piece. Lupton Steel Partitions, standard units, are used on the fifth, sixth and seventh floors, as shown on page ‘‘C,’’ and are recommended for general office use in preference to the combination plaster and steel sash partition, which do not permit changes of office arrangement. The Lupton Steel Sash and Doors for plaster partitions are all special, and are made in sizes to suit the requirements of each building. pee I eel Laboratory Tests of Steel Sash and Partitions That Te =f : Sh ae pert) 1) 411] EEL {TTT Messrs. Harris & Richards Mr. G. E. Emmons, Manager Consulting Engineers and Architects Mr. C. G. Hulth Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds LABORATORY GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY, SCHENECTADY WORKS The latest development of Counterweighted Type of Lupton Steel Sash with rolled bronze double weathering, welded joints and continuous glazing angles, were required to make this laboratory air- and dust-proof. The Lupton steel windows, welded tube doors and partitions would, without other fire protection, localize fire damage and prevent loss of invaluable experimental data. The Lupton counterweighted windows with rolled bronze double weathering are par- ticularly adapted for office buildings and fine residence work. Difference in price over ordinary windows is more than offset in the saving in cost of heating the building. The investment value is increased by reducing the fire hazard and cost of maintenance and expense of heating the building.

This service is based on our specialized experience extending over a period of more than forty years. Each type of building requires special treatment to get really efficient light and ventilation; and each building of a type will have some individual requirements, owing to location, position as regards nearby buildings, methods of manufacture, etc., which must be carefully studied. Well lighted and ventilated buildings are not the result merely of the use of the right products, but rather of the correct use of the right products in construction properly designed to receive them. It is in showing what the correct use is, and in designing the proper construction, that Lupton Service demonstrates its value. We will act in an advisory capacity to architects, engineers or owners and prepare, without charge, comprehensive drawings showing most effective roof formations, types of sash with necessary lighting and ventilating areas, and their locations to give best results for build- ings of any size and for any purpose. We call attention to the various designs, such as Pond Trusses for Foundries and Forge Shops and for Power Houses, shown in this catalogue. Lupton Service originated these designs to obtain certain results desired by our clients. We invite consultation with our Service Department. The best results are obtained if our suggestions are given before finished plans are made. We should have complete data as to use of build- ing, location of columns, length, width, height, number of stories and any special requirements. | “Tested the Way the Wind Blows” THE ONLY PRACTICAL TEST OF SASH STRENGTH THE JOINT The joint at the inter- section of the solid one- piece rolled steel members assures strength, durabil- ity, and least opportunity for corrosion. The metal removed does not impair strength of the sash. The straight line joint pre- serves desired architec- tural effect.

Lines of Pond Continuous Sash controlled by Pond Operating Device in upper side and end walls and in monitor keep building free from heat and gases and supply even overhead light. — Mr. O. A. Eckerman Union Malleable Iron Company, Foundry Architect East Moline, Ill. Two lines of Pond Continuous Sash applied to monitor. Each line is hinged under a continuous angle which forms a hood at the top of the sash. At the end of the line the hinged sash laps over a stationary light or storm panel which prevents entrance of weather. Each line is con- trolled separately by Pond Operating Device. See detail, page 52. 53 Pond Continuous Sash Applied to Side Walls ¥ Messrs. Mills, Rhines, Bellman & Nordhoff The Willys Overland Company, Forge Shop Architects Toledo, Ohio Pond Continuous Sash, controlled by Pond Operating Device, used throughout for roof and side wall lighting and ventilation. Sash are weather-tight when open. “1 Mr. G. C. Cleveland Lake Shore and Michigan Southern R. R. Shops Chief Engineer Ashtabula, Ohio Pond Continuous Sash is used in side walls and monitors throughout building. Maximum ventilation is provided with protection from weather. 54 Pond Continuous Sash Pivoted Type COMPARISON We make pivoted type only when required. Snow and rain strike sash and are blown over the top, while the hinged type is weather-tight when opened, and is easily controlled by Pond Operating Device with varying load of sash offset by spiral and counterweight. The cost of building is increased by the additional steel for the roof cantilever required for pivoted type. We can prove better ventilating results under all weather conditions with top hung Pond Continuous Sash. Let us show installations of both types. The original installation of Pond Continuous Sash, Pivoted Type, was 70,000 square feet furnished by us in 1909 for the Pullman Company in their steel Freight Car Plant, Pullman, IIl. FIRST INSTALLATION Malleable pivots with bronze pins are used, and all other features, in- SPECIFICATIONS cluding welded joints and sections, are same as for top hung sash shown on page 50. Mr. W. E. Wood, Construction Engineer Ford Motor Works, Detroit, Mich. Extension to Machine Shop Interior view of installation of Pond Continuous Sash, Pivoted Type 55 Pond Truss Foundry and Forge Shop Type (Patented by Clarke P. Pond) INSTALLATIONS of Pond Truss in foundries, forge shops, glass factories, machine shops, power houses and steel mills have practically proven the scientific principles of design and conclusively shown in daily use under all weather conditions unusual results in light and ventilation. Owners are so well satisfied that in a number of instances (in foundries, forge shops, glass factories and steel mills) old buildings have been remodeled and Pond Truss applied to reduce the tonnage cost by making it prac- tical to operate the buildings under all weather conditions and secure maximum production from each workman. of Pond Truss is based on eliminating the unnecessary cross section of building, making DESIGN : ; : the roof areas of such sizes, slopes and in such location as may be necessary to deflect gases toward sash, preventing down drafts and all reverse currents when sash are open. Sash are used in side walls and roof of proper type and construction to freely ventilate and light entire floor areas under all weather conditions. Columns are located to suit the use of building and Pond Truss applied to these column centers, special draw- ings being made for each building. Best results are obtained by using a single Pond Truss in buildings not exceeding 175 feet in width. Sash are located to introduce daylight early and late and avoid direct rays of sun at midday. Our drawings show appli- cation of roofing without metal flashings or gutters. ECONOMY Our special designs for your building will convince you that Pond Truss is an economical form of roof lighting and ventilation that costs no more than any other roof construc- tion of equal light and ventilation area. The improved workmanship and increased tonnage per man are the direct results of better working conditions. APPLICATION We study your present plant, also sketches and description of proposed extension, and suggest in detail the particular form of Pond Truss (with auxiliary roof areas where build- ings are over 175 feet in width). We will arrange for inspection of Pond Trusses in buildings nearest your re- quirements and will make convincing smoke test showing the unusual results in ventilation that are obtained by Pond Trusses. Workmen at all times have plenty of daylight during working hours and fresh air at reasonable temperature during hottest weather. Pond Continuous Sash (equipped with storm panels, making sash weather-tight when open) is always used in upper side walls and roof. We will make special designs of Pond Truss to meet your requirements without charge. = ES Cross sections of Pond Truss are shown on page 60; views and general description pages 56 to 64, and addi- tional views pages 67 and 70. 56 Pond Truss Foundry and Forge Shop Type Lupton Factory, Philadelphia, Pa.

Pond) Cross sections of five typical Pond Trusses with standard drawing numbers, shown on this page, illustrate typical applications of Pond Trusses to STANDARD DRAWINGS buildings of various proportions and uses. There are certain details of steel and masonry construction on all standard drawings that are recommended for seneral use as providing the best connec- tion between roofing, masonry, steel structure and sash, but itis our intention to always supply special details to meet the requirements of each building, as outlined on page 56. The height to bottom OWNER ; chord of truss, location DETERMINES of columns, crane and DIMENSIONS all structural and me- chanical features of the building below the bottom chord of the truss are deter- mined by the owner or engineer, either before or after consultation with our- selves. We inspect your present plant and suggest your inspection of Pond Trusses in operated buildings that are nearest your requirements. We assist architects, engineers and owners for lighting and ventilation, including all roof construction, sash area, sash oper- ating device, steel doors and steel parti- tions, but do not design nor construct buildings. The instant adoption and wide use of Pond Trusses increase our reputation for SERVICE products and sales service in advance of advertising statements.

Toledo, Ohio 61 Pond Truss Power House Type (Patents pending by Clarke P. Pond) DESIGN Pond Truss, Power House Type, is designed to introduce daylight and fresh air directly to the firing alleys, and to discharge immediately all heated gases outside of the building. Two roof levels are used; an upper roof over the coal bunkers and the transverse coal conveyors, and a lower roof over the boilers and the alley between the boilers and the Turbine Room, make it possible to use Pond Continuous Sash on the slope between the coal bunker walls and the boiler roof. Smoke and unconsumed gases are discharged in the horizontal duct above roof which reduces the heat radiation in the boiler room about 80 per cent. Cross Section through Turbine Room and Longitudinal Section through Boiler Room Smoke and unconsumed gases are discharged directly into ducts above roof. 62 Pond Truss Power House Type (Patents pending for Clarke P. Pond) Pond Truss, Power House Type, does not increase the first cost of the building; forced ventilation is not required. Daylight instead of artificial light in the firing alleys and better conditions for workmen are obtained by the use of this ECONOMY Truss. We will adapt the design shown on this and the preceding page for use in Power Houses of any size. Small units with but one double firing alley or large units with a number of alleys are all easily lighted and ventilated. We will prepare details without charge. An inspection of the Cleveland Electric Hluminating Company, Lake Street Power Station, Cleveland, will show you more light and fresh air and less radiated heat than you will find in any other large Boiler Room.
