Mechanical Contracting & Plumbing January-December 1908 . ons where feasible, for instance, be-tween the machine shop and tool room,between the machine shop and patternshop, and between the foundry and thecore-room, facilitates good is used where a more effectivepartition than wire is required, as be-tween the plating room and the ship-ping room, and between the platingroom and the polishing and buffing room. The plant consists of the main build-ing, 60x175 feet, with a wing 30x50 feet,and a foundry 50x100 feet. The mainbuilding is of slow-burning mill con-struction, but the foundry is of steelconstruction. Limestone brick is usedthroughout. Between these main depart-ments are fire doors and wire glass par-titions. The main building is two storeys in height at present, but theroof construction is such as to allowjacking up for the addition of anotherstorey when necessary. Thus ample pro- vision is made for upward extension inthe main building and the foundry canbe extended at the rear the fust floor of the main building.
