Warehouse with 60 domes of prestressed concrete
Prestressed concrete warehouse at Le Havre, France, covering 243,250 sq ft is roofed with "biretta-shaped" shell concrete domes, square at base; sides measure 63 ft and 61 ft 6 in.; to improve fire resistance of building, special "thermolux" panes, more fragile than rest, are designed to break should fire occur and thereby act as chimney for hot air below, to localize danger.
