Forty percent weight reduction with new building unit
Experimental use of roof panels and girders prefabricated from structural clay units, high tension steel rods and strand for kiln house, constructed by Builders Brick Co at Clay City plant near Seattle, Wash; 6×12×12-in. three-cell, load-bearing tile, weighing 33 1/2 lbs with average strength of 10,000 psi for net cross section, used for all purposes; girders (designed to support load of 70,000 lb) and roof panels were prestressed, in accordance with Powell's plans.
