Modern plumbing illustrated; a comprehensive and thoroughly practical work on the modern and most approved methods of plumbing construction .. . tance, that in order to run thesoil pipe as shown in the plans, an offset on the vertical line must beused, which is always detrimental. He also finds, especially in bath-room work, that he must cut into floor timbers and into uprights inorder to conceal his work, and indeed, often cut through timbersand make use of a header to support it; whereas, if the architect knewthe requirements and put this knowledge into his work, many of thesedifficulties might easily be avoided. The vertical soil piping may sometimes be run in a dark closetadjacent to the bath room, but more often must be run inside a nar-row partition, or exposed to view. If it is desired to conceal the soilpipe, it should be boxed in, but the front boarding should be put upwith screws, in order that it may be easily and quickly taken downwhen repairs or changes are necessary on the piping. Unless thisprovision is made, lathing and plastering must be cut out. Plate XX BATH ROOMS O^nn^oti^ns -for Baf-h Room P/aZ-e ZO. Veiz/. J2§022Z
