of Reinforced Concrete as Applied to
MILLS and FACTORIES
B
ECAUSE of its remarkable adaptability, architects who investigate
the KAHN System find they can obtain most satisfactory results in mill and factory construction. Necessary requisites to successful construction are
all found highly perfected in KAHN products:
Reasonable First Cost Low Maintenance Cost
Speed of Erection
Freedom from Vibration
Adaptability
Fireproofness
In plasticity to form and adaptability to
circumstance, the KAHN System will be found to meet the most exacting conditions.
JUST A FEW WORDS ABOUT OUR BEST KNOWN PRODUCTS:
The KAHN TRUSSED BAR is of diamond shaped cross section with horizontal flanges or wings, at diametrically opposite corners. The wing portions are sheared up at intervals and bent to an angle of 45 degrees with the main portion of the bar. These shear members are rigidly attached and shop-prepared. The ideal reinforcement for beams, girders and long span constructions. ) Bulletin No. 5 “What Reinforced
Concrete Is” on request. ) KAHN RIB METAL is a series of laterally connected bars or ribs,
which ribs are perfectly straight and span directly between the supports.
All the tension is resisted by the ribs in a straight line action to the
supports. The cross members are rigidly attached to these bars so
that the whole form a series which is easily handled and placed.
Used for short span or hydraulic construction and for
ornamental work. The CUP BAR, as the name implies, is provided with a series of cups which are deeper than
the ordinary types of deformation. They are scien
tifically designed so that the bar will not slip
through the concrete nor shear the concrete along
the line of the bar.For further information about the KAHN System, its
records in factory construction and other facts, tear off this corner and mail.
