SPIRAL CHUTES AND SPROCKETS 461 Open-center spiral chutes (Fig. 157) are supported byhangers from the ceiling or on structural steel are also often carried on a central post having longradial steel arms upon which the runway proper is se-cured. This form (Fig. 158) is generally called an open-center-with-post spiral chute. Open center chutes requirea guardrail on each side of the runway. They occupyconsiderably more floor space than the closed center typeof the same capacity, but will accommodate a somewhatlarger package for the same width of runway. Fire doors are required at all openings where a spiralchute passes through floors. These doors should be held open by a fusible link which melts and allows the door to closepositively in the event of a fire. The vert
