Text Appearing After Image:
YOUNG BUILDING. Second Story. Showing the condition of the under side of the su.speiuler sv.steni of tlieexpanded metal floors. One floor span is broken down by sheet iron which fell through from the fourth story. This floorconstruction, on account of the expansion of the exposed su.spender band, deflected badly throughout the building, evenwhere there was little or no load resting on it. There is an earthquake crack in the rear wall in the centre. The hollow tilepartition around the toilet-room in the rear is badly wrecked. The crack around the expanded metal lath and plaster columncovering, about five feet from the floor, occurs throughout the building, and probably marks the height of the wood trim, orthe sections of the completed plaster work during the construction of the buiiiiing. 83
