' v .- Issued EveryWednosday - HOWARD W1NNARD ... Kdltor . Little can bo done about an earth quake at tor It is over, Id the field tn.wnich It principally affects human bWngi,. that of .,-'bulldlDK construc tion.", much mifitil tie dono In ad vasco of the next one. If the afora- .alU human beings were, capable of ) learning from experience. Unfortu ' nately wn bit. not very docile. The . highest practical authority oh the subject declares that a great manv of ibe carpenters, builders, con tractor and architects, and- a con--slderablo number of the engineers, hro- learned very little from ob .. serration of thoeo disasters. 1' They continue patting-one brick on another to convenient height and laying; floor Joists across them exactlr aa their predecessors, did , In Sodom : and. Gomorrah, and Nineveh and Tyre, and In .Memphis and Thebes and Lisbon. 5 . The Turks- tells us "experience Is - hairbrush- that nature- hands us . -after .we. have lost our- hair." In regard to- construction, we shall have moro hair; and It we consult ..experience- wo -can save some of It, and-also save-our hides. Compara ., tlvcly stable construction is not dif ficult to understand It is only dif v flcnlt to d. And the main dlffl 'sulty ebout doing It consists In pay , .'.lag ft very little- more- for timber or steel and persuading the builder te-pnl it In the right place. ... Light- and flexible' building of limber' are- preferable to those of . torick; . They., hare more elasticity i or. power to: return to-form after being deformed. But they need bracing- acres - the upper angles lurmra oy tne wall sand floors so - that tinder. horisorrtali and diagonal .strains to4 "angles wiir 'remain fixed, loafing it to the vertical timbers to, bend and come back. ot-ceilings are valuable for this reason,, when the cove members are not - too light they form a con tinuous brace 'and offer consider able, resiatenca to contraction of the angle. , In. the - basement, of the ordinary wooden dwelling it is easy t brace ; the posts in the npper ?"nglea- they; form with the sills. ,9ut 'that is only, in one direction. . . TJ take the heads of braces running , the ether direction,. plate-pieces . . should be . spiked to the bottoms of Jblats parallel, to the sills, and . 45 degree braces should bo spiked to the posts and plate ploces. It. would -be still better. If" bolts were added. tn the. nailing.- A good deal of damage to frame structures, in .. San Francisco was ascribed to rusted-out nailing where atudB were toe-nnllcd to mudsills. For some time after the earthauake anybody that; naked for galvanised hails was looked, on as mentally ln: competent and referred to a shin 'chandlery. Today they arc more common in hardware stores, sc, thero has been some gain. They cost so. little more than hare nails tbat they ought to bo moro sennr- ally used, especially where they are to be exposed to dampness, t'nttlnr thi-ouch sills to run nines can fin. stray 95 per cent of the horizontal strength needed again at earth quake strain. An earthauake not ouiv has wave motion, but sires the land it self a horiiontal movement. There fore, braces risinr from the mudsill are- less desirable than smaller and higher ones, which would permit the wall or the posts to bend. And vertical bolts extending from foun dation . walls through mudsills would help hold the wooden walls on the foundation. Brick structures would be more secure if the designers could be persuaded to lcavo some unbrokeu wall spaces at the sides and across tne top. .Most brick buildings are weakened by too many windows, and when the shock comes the spaces left between are shattered diagonally. Covering ' material for steel frames is too often nteruly rested en the. horizontal members. - floor by floor. Not only should the frames themselves bo well braced at upper angles, but the brick or concrete-used for curtaining should be fastened on by reinforcing bars That is seldom done, but pictures from Santa Barbara show the need of it. There is no such thine as art nh. solutely earthauake proof building. We can, however, provide create r stability than- we commonly do. We must take' some chance we do it every time we cross. a street but there is no-sense' in taking too much. The old negro' mammv was wise that said-: -'T trusts- de Lawd, buf I don't fool wid ' Him."
