The bottom of these bases is big and broad, giving an unusually large bearing surface for the base to rest on, and around which the concrete can grip. The top of the base is equip- ped with a split half, which friction-grips the column when the four galvanized bolts are tightened. This clamp permits an adjustment up or down of the column, which is a valuable feature in lining up the rafters. In addition to the power- ful friction grip of the clamp, it is equipped with a cold chilled pointed set screw. which bores right into the pipe, doubly insuring it against slipping. The rafter and post are in one piece from the ground line to the column cap, where it is joined to the balance of the rafter extending to the ridge by a steel splice plate. This plate also carries the main member of the double angle iron truss. The truss and rafter from the column to the ridge are all put together and hot- riveted in place at the fac- tory. This saves a lot of work on the job and greatly increases speed of erection. In our next ad we will tell you about the special treat- ment of the purlins and vent header in the Reconstructed Construction.
