ineheaireeaon 0f the 9o glass to provide for'lateral'expansionfandf.
Y' ,of the supporting bars is'ta'ken4 care ofatf' i upward between the side flanges 2, 2. The glass is shown at 4 and the' edges of the panes-of glass are supported upon the side flanges 2, 2 of the T-beams 1, and obtain abroad flat bearing thereon.
Means is provided for securing asoft flexible cushioning support for the glass 4 upon the flanges 2, 2 and such means may take the form of comparatively broad flat strips of suit-able material resting directly upon the flanges 2, 2 of the T-beams 1.l rlhe glass 4 is not placed directly upon this soft elastic cushioning means, as such an arrangement lmight result in water, condensed on the undersurface ofthe glass, or getting through any cracks which might be formed `in the'glass coming into contact with and lar material is extended inwardly under the glass beyond the cushioning means 5, `and is bent downward at 7, bent inwardly at 8 Iand `upwardly kat 9, to form a gutter 10, the upper edge 11 of the gutter 10 being spaced below and not in contact with th'e glass 4, and leaving a slight opening between the edge 11 and the lowersurface of the glass 4. All water of condensation and all water penetrating within the structure will be collected within this gutter 10 and carried off as explained hereinafter.
In order to still further protect the cushioning material 5 and to prevent access of dirt or water thereto, the |cushion covering means 6 is extended upwardly at the edge adjacent to the web 3 of the T-beam 1, as shown at 12 so that any water getting past .the inner edge 13 of the glass 4, will not penetrate to the cushioning material 5, but will be carried along the strip 6 underneath the glass 4 and into the gutter 10. A olea.'- a-nce is provided beneath th'e inner edges of the glass 4 and the web 3 of the T-beams 1,-
so that the glass is freetocontract and .expand toward and away from the web 3 of the T-beams 1, andthe upwardly extending edge 12 of the strip 6 is also spaced slightly away from the edge 13 of the glass for a like purpose. In order to present the edges of the glass 4 in adjacent sections slightly away from one another so as to prevent looseness and vibration, I provide expansion clips 14 of substantially U-shape and fitting over the 'top of the web 3 of the T-beams 1 and having spring projecting portions 15, .which bear against the upwardly extending edges 12 of the strip-s 6 and which at the.
same timey will give sufliciently to accommodate any expansion and contraction of the glass which may take place One of these clips 14 is preferably provided at each of the bolts 16 hereafter referred rto and the clips' 14 are provided with openings 17 through which the bolts 16 may pass. To still further protect the interior of the structure and cushioning means 5 from the ingress of water from above and in .order to provide a comparatively soft self-adjusting cushion for the spring cap or cover which completes the structure, have provided an additional cushioning means 18 which is preferably formed from strips y of soft lead,6 These strips comprise the portions19 lying flat on the upper surface ofthe glass, opposite to and above the cushioning means 5, and an upwardly extending portion 20, which forms a dam for excluding water and other material from ingress to the interior of the structure, and a downwardly extending, reversely bent portion 21 extending over the top and down on the inside of the upwardly project` ing portion 12 of the cushion protecting means 6, this construction serving to secure together the lead strips 13, and the cushion covering strips 6 which. have the gutters 10 formed thereon, preventing strips 6 and 13 from coming loose and getting out of place.
The joint is completed by a spring cover or cap 22 which is preferably formed of copper and comprises a fla-t or approximately flat top portion 23, downwardly and outwardly extending flat portions 24, and lower surfaces 25, 25 which extend inwardly and at an acute angle to the downwardly extending portion 24, 24 and rest dat on the flat portions 19 of the lead strips 18 which themselves rest directly upon the glass, and have ya bearing thereon.
Means is provided for securing the spring cap or cover 22 in lplace and preferably com.
prises the bolts 16 provided with heads 26 received in undercut openings 27 in the web 3 of the =l'beams 1, although, of course other means than that shown ymay be resorted to for this purpose. In order to provide against unequal expansion between the T-beams 1 andthe caps 22 and to facilitate the work oferection, the openings 28 provided in the cap 22 for the passage of bolts 16 are somewhat elongated and washers or cover vplates 29 are provided having openings 30 of the correct size to accommodate the passage of bolts 16, as is shown in Fig- `ure 6. After the cap has been put in place and the cover plates or washers 29 have been inserted over the bolts ,16, the nuts 31 are screwed on the bolts 16 to hold all the parts together with the requisite degree of` v"are sec'ured "together `by'"screwing u'p' the v'nuts 3i, the lportions 25, in addition` to. hav# ingadiat .bearing thrimgh'out`A thefwidthfj upon the strips' 19,'falso serve 'to' 'e'ertfa spring action, thus" increasing thel tightness `of the i'oint `and .holding thelea'd"strips` 19 j' ige-54,079

Suitable meansl isprovided for closing the openings which would otherwisey be left V above the supporting curb 33 and below the lower-surface of the glass 4 intermediate of the T-beams l, and means for-holding such closing means in'place may be'provided by leaving vertical slots or openings in the sides-of the expansion clipsl 32 for the reception of the ends of the members provided for closingthe space between the glass and the curb` oiother member upon which the structure is supported. The members for' closing. this opening are show-n in vcross- #section at 40 and comprise fiat lower sur;
