Alcoa Al uminum expresses both the grace and the vigor
SPECIFICATIONS
Alcoa No. 43 Aluminum Alloy is recommended for most architectural purposes. To meet the numerous demands for structural stability, Alcoa Aluminum alloys are available in various tensile strengths. In each of our offices we have competent representatives with a wealth of experience as to the decorative and structural uses of each of the special Alcoa Aluminum alloys. The services of these representatives are available to the designer and the specification writer. May we urge you to accept this cooperation without obligation in designing and writing specifications for buildings in which Alcoa Aluminum alloys will form a part?

N design and detail, the Howard Avenue Trust 6? Savings Bank Building, Chicago, expresses both grace and vigor.
Using Alcoa No. 43 Aluminum Alloy—the architect, Jens J. Jensen, has secured a pleasing combination of strength, durability and softness of tone—an effect in evidence in front door and vestibule grilles, lobby door frames and grilles, mail box, balcony and stair railing, vault grilles and screen.
Alcoa Aluminum is produced in cast, extruded and sheet form. In any form it is easily worked and finished. It is remarkably light —1/3 the weight of other metals commonly used—but it is strong and tough. It is eminently adaptable for exterior use as it resists corrosion—does not streak adjoining surfaces. And, with all its virtues, Alcoa Aluminum is low in cost—comparable to other metals which do not possess its specific advantages. These important advantages are putting Alcoa Aluminum at the architects’ disposal for spandrels, mullions, sills, door frames, grilles and for many other purposes.
