_Receiving and Discharging._--Referring to the plan, attention is drawn to the three sections. Ingress and egress have been provided by railroad track at one end of Section “A” and double track with platforms on each side connected at end. Twin elevators with stairs are located within a continuous vestibule and the center section can be served from either elevator and stairs in either vestibule. The corner stairs in Sections “A” and “B” were demanded by the City Building Department, but not necessary to the operation of the plant. _Insulation Lines._--Referring to the longitudinal section observe the twin columns, twin girders on each floor level, the inner carrying the floor construction and the outer the curtain walls. Notice the inlay of insulation. The outer walls entirely enclose the concrete skeleton, making the brick work continuous and sightly. The transverse drawing of Section “C” shows a partition continuous from basement to ceiling of sixth floor. This partition is not built from floor to floor, but continuous through the floors, making either end virtually an isolated building. _Warm Storage--One Floor._--It was desirable in this instance to use the upper floors of the building for warm storage, consequently the top encasing insulation is placed on the ceiling of the sixth story, continuing to and meeting the wall insulation, which with the wall insulation encases the cold storage, as spoken of for the ideal. The floor construction is of flat ceiling type, there being no girders to contend with in piling product or installing piping. _Part Freezers._--Frequently the space required for freezing purposes will not be sufficient to justify the construction of an independent building. Sometimes consideration is given to building freezers in a horizontal belt, horizontally across the building. This is not a proper construction, since it costs much more to insulate than if the same volume were arranged vertically with one section above the other. In other words, if one desires to cover a floor surface of 20,000 square feet it would be far better to make it four areas of 5,000 feet in a four-story building than on one or two floors.
