Navy camp built from non-critical materials
Substituting asbestos cement sheets of 1/4 in. thickness for 5/8 in. thick plywood originally specified for exterior sheathing, contractors for Navy's Camp Bainbridge, Md, were able to eliminate more critical wood; thin asbestos sheets over plaster board and tar paper provide attractive, fireproof wall; glued, laminated arches form ribs for 120-ft span drill hall.
