BULLOCK & JONES BUILDING. Third Story, Showing the failure of the hollow tile column protection andthe consequent buckling of two columns.

The concretefloors are in good condition and in place, notwithstanding the settling of the columns and the distortion of the steel beamsand girders. Note also the bulging of the steel beams in the stairway opening, due to unprotected facias. 128
