Abstract :
ARC WELDED steel framing for dwelling houses is representative of some of the recent experiments in modern building construction. Many advantages are claimed for the welded type of construction, among them being: rapidity and noiselessness of construction, flexibility of design, rigidity and solidity, low rate of depreciation, and a lower insurance rate resulting from the fireproof construction which this method makes possible. What is more important is the fact that all of these advantages may be realized without any appreciable increase in cost oyer older methods of construction.
