5 An angle web is formed .at the inner or contracted end of each bracket 0, andeach web 0' consists of a substantiallytriangular body section 18 that extends fromthe con to the inner- This head D that-the One set of rackets 0 provided with a downwardly and inwardly-extending looking lug 20, said lugs being carried beyond the inner ends of the brackets a 'suflicient distance to reachthe lower edgp of the girder B when the inner portion of t v rests upon the upper edge of the girder; v and e body of the bracket at the lowenend' of each locking 1 20' a hook-shaped terminal 21 .is provide that engages 'with the bottom ed e of the girder B as isshown -m Fig. 1', t us holding the bracket in position. The other 'set of brackets however, are provided with very short hook-shaped locking lugs 22, as is i .7 shown, in 1, fadaptcdto simply enga e.
with'the upper edge and outer ace of t e fider B. n ;the' arrangement of the rackets the brackets'h'aving'the long lugs are .'made to alternate with the brackets having the shorter lugs 22, as is indicated "in Fig.2. The brackets Q are placed upon the girder B in pairs, the brackets of a pair being opposite each other and located at one side of a saddleA'. Q
To'assist in maintaining the" brackets C in [proper position relatively to-the girdcr'B, a
f recess 23 is made iiithe under face .of each i I so bracket-at its inner'e d to receive the inner longitudinalu pered e portion of the girder B, and when; t ebrac ets are :in position on thefgirder their inner ends extend inwardly direct: any hquid -t the brackets into the sha edgirder' B.
from the upper edghes ofthe girder so as to at.may be received by said trough or gutterach sash bar D rests upon the lugs'lfi of its supportingbracket G and consequently the hot air in the gree' ouse can circulate all around-the-inner or heel ends of the-said sash bars,- keeping -them.practically dry, an'dthe lugs 16 hold the sai, at their lower" ends out ofpossible V engage-j sash bars ment with the liquidcon acted by their e ends of also shown in Fig; 6.
supporting brackets but should any moisture collect upon the sash bars D it is conducted oil through .the medium of longitudinally inclined channels 24, produced in thesides. of the sash bars adjacent to its bottom portion, and these channels deliver the li uid collected upon or received by the sash are, to the .forward portions of the brackets C and eventually such liquid finds .its way to the gutter-shaped girder B which is practically a secondary gutter ion the structure, the main or root gutter E being above it. n
Each sash bar Dis rovided upon its u per face witha rib 25 and a downwardly an in-1 wardly inclined wall 26 at each side of said rib as is particularly shown in Fig. 6, forming a series of channels 27 when the window panes 28 have been placed in position relatively'to the sash bars; These window panes rest upon. theupper side edges of the sash "bars and bear'aga nst the sides of the-flanges 25 as shown in Fig. 6, and tli putty 29, or other cementing material, is placed upon the said panes and is beveled u tothe upper faces of the upper ribs 25 of t e sash bars as struction' of each sash bar D, the up er portion of-its inner end is'given a sh ht hevel30 for a purpose to be hereinafter escribed.
Relativel I to'the main or roof gutter E it is made of s eet metal and isalso practically V-shaped but is of greater dimensions than the secondary gutter formed by'the girder B. The bottom portion 31- of the main gutter E extends from the o posing lower ends of the angle webs of the brackets C, as is shown-in Fig. 1, and the sides of the main gutter extend upward in opposite directions in engagement with the upper edges of the body sections 18 of the angle we 0, and over the upper edges of the head sections or members 19 of the said webs to, an 7 engagement with the under faces of the panes 29, so that any moisture that me acpanes will find its way downward to the under faces .of the sides of the main gutter E In the further con-" 119 cumulate on the bottom portions 0 the Y and will be conducted to the secondary gutter or girder B.

each clamp being provided with a ,downwe rdly-extending head member 35, that bears'u on the upper, edges of the mainfl gutter and hol s jsaid portions of said gutter in fast engagement with the head sections 19 of the a le websC'; The same bolts 36emplo ed to old the clamps 34 in osition on t e sash bars D also serve to fasten the long locking l'ugs 20 to the brackets 0, since by preference the long lugs 20' are made independent of their brackets C, while "the shorter lugs 22 are cast integral with v 115 'A recess 33 -'s made in the rib 25 of each
