Excerpt from Packing House and Cold Storage Construction: A General Reference Work on the Planning, Construction and Equipment of Modern American Meat Packing Plants With Special Reference to the Requirements of the United States Government and a Complete Treatise on the Design of Cold Storage Plants, Including It has been the aim of the author in preparing this work to present a complete treatise upon the subject, of practical value to those directly interested in the construe tion and maintenance of packing plants and cold storage buildings. That there is a demand for such a work, has been evidenced to the author by numerous inquiries from archi teets and owners, and also by the fact that there exists no similar work describing modern American methods and materials. The requirements of The Bureau of Animal Industry in Washington regarding the sanitary construction of packing plants, have been carefully considered by the author in presenting the illustrations and text pertaining thereto. The chapters on cold storage construction contain information which heretofore has only been available through a close study and investigation of existing build ings or through scattered descriptions and discussions of this subject in current technical journals. In describing methods of construction, the author has drawn largely from his own observation and experience of what has been successfully tried and tested in actual practice, although much assistance has been obtained from prominent authorities in the various subjects mentioned in the work. A great deal of valuable information has also been derived from various books and publications to which reference has been made in the text. To all such the author gratefully acknowledges his indebtedness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
