Packing house and cold storage construction; a general reference work on the planning, construction and equipment of modern American meat packing plants, with special reference to the requirements of the United States government, and a complete treatise on the design of cold storage plants, including refrigeration, insulation and cost data .. . nd enam-eled tiles, are used where a more elaborate finish is desired. Double Wall Insulation The type of wall insulation shown in Figure 98 con-sists of two brick walls, placed from eight to twelve inchesapart, the width depends upon the thickness of insulationrequired. The space between the walls is filled with a loose in-sulating material such as granulated cork, mineral wool,or mill shavings. The outside wall is the building wall proper and is con-structed ahead of the inside retaining wall and the twoare tied together with iron anchors. The four-inch wall is built as a panel between the col-umns and is supported by the concrete construction at eachfloor level. One wall-tie is generally placed in the centre of eachpanel to prevent the wall from buckling under the pres-sure from the insulating material behind. INSULATION 171 When the cohimns are omitted and the retaining wallis continuous from one end of the building to the otherthe anchors should be placed not over six feet FIG. 9S—DETAIL -QF DOUBLE WALL-INSULATION. -GRANULATED CORK The brick should be laid up in Portland cement mortarand the wall placed flush with the outside face of the con-crete floor beams. 172 INSULATION The space between the cokinins and the outside wallis insulated with cork-board from four to six inches in thick-ness. This is done to bring the columns nearer to the walland still have sufficient insulation between them to preventheat transmission. b^\CK W^LL-CL^\ MOWAH- zxom. bOKHb CLMLNT MOCTMIPL/X^TLa
