Prismatic Lights at Auto Garage for Ford Automobile Co., Detroit.
Span, 7 feet 2 inches. Field, Hinchman & Smith, Architects.
This work was guaranteed to hold a live load of
800 pounds per square foot. Part of the panel shown was loaded with
40,000 pounds of loose sand, held in place by tiers of boxes without
bottoms. Not even a hair crack developed with this load, which remained
on twenty-four hours with a deflection of 3/16 inch.
Deflection fully recovered after removal of load.
