The Tower of the New City Hall at Philadelphia, Pa.
Volumes innumerable have been written treating of the theory, design and construction of plane trusses, trusses whose members have their axes lying in one and the same plane; and it has long been the practice to construct domes, conical roofs, etc., supported by a number of such trusses occupying planes radial to the vertical axis of the structure. J. W. Schwedler conceived the idea of designing the wrought-iron “mantle construction,” which bears his name, in which the stresses occur and are taken up in the mantle of the structure, leaving all the interior space unoccupied by trusses.
