WILLIAM BRENNAN, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
WIRE LATHING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 228,030, dated May 25, 1880. Application filed March 1, 1880. (No model) To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, WILLIAM BRENNAN, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in SupportingWire Lathing, of which the following is a specification.
Figure l is a sectional elevation of the improvement. Fig. 2 is an under-side View, part being broken away.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
The objectof this invention is to support wire lathin g in ceilings in such a manner as to leave no air-spaces between the beams and the mortar, which spaces, in case of fire, serve as draft-fines, and thus cause the fire to spread rapidly, and increase the difficulty of controlling the fire.
A represents the beams of a ceiling, and B represents the wire-netting which serves as a lathing, and to which the mortarO is applied. The wire lathing B hasheretofore been applied to furring attached to the beams A. This construction is objectionable, from the fact that the mortar could not rise high enough above the wire lathing to fill the spaces between the said lathing and the beams, which spaces, in case of fire, act as lines to draw the fire into and cause it to spread through the ceilings, rendering it very difficult for the firemen to get at the fire and control it. To remove this difficulty I attach iron rods D to the lower edges of the beams A transversely by means of staples Eor other suitable means, and then attach the wire lathin g B to the rods D by wires F or other suitable means. With this construction the mortar O entirely fills the spaces between the lower edges of the beams A and the wire lathing B and surrounds the lower part of the beams A, so that there will be no space for the passage of air between the beams and the mortar, and consequently fire cannot spread through the ceiling.
Having thus described myinventioml claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent Y A wire lathing secured to beams A by rods D, staples E, and wires F, as shown and described, for the purpose specified.
