Fireproof Interior Dividing Partitions.

■ r ,A new type of partition for fire-proof construction in offices and factories has recently been put on the market. It is a standard unit, flexible, and adaptable to practically any space. It can be used in connection with glass or solid upper panels, and

wire or. metal ceilings. The principal feature is its durability over the wooden type of partitions commonly used in offices and in similar construction. . The partition is really built up in sections, as shown in Fig. 1. It consists of a hollow metal post,

a panel, and a glass■'section 7 above, either made with a steel sash or made in large glass sections with steel tops for inserting the glass. - u ,7

The posts, are equipped with U-channels : to fit partitions,"and : are held in place by special floor and

ceiling inserts. The variable end panel, without glass, makes it possible to take care of any room dimension. The ; partitions are finished the same on both sides.
