Pollution-Free Fork Litt

A new pollution-free electric fork lift truck which will lift 3000 lbs. of material up to 19' in the air for placement in storage racks, has been unveiled by Crown. a worldwide manufacturer of flctory and warehouse material handling equipment. Powered from a rechargeable 36V industrial battery, it will travel over six mph.

Electronic controls, which "mete r" out just the right amount ol electrical current for lifting and traveling accor- ding to the material weight and distance to be traveled, conserves battery power fbr a lull eight hours of operation before re-charging is required.

In some instances where loads are less than capacity and travel distances are short, a single battery charge can last considerably longer.

Quite unlike conventionally powered iork lifts which burn liquid fuel in internal combustion engines, the electric has no exhaust fumes and is virtually noiseless.

Maneuverability of the new Crown lork lilt is best illustrated by imagining a circle with a 54" radius. Place the vehicle in the center of this circle and it will make a complete 360 degree turn and not leave the circle.

It can be used in virtuallv anv industrv where palletized material 'musi be loaded, unloaded, stored, retrieved and moved from one place to another.

New Threshold Protects.

A revolutionary new threshold which can be installed at the factory as part of a pre-packaged door unit not only assures a tight seal but also provides allround rigidity which virtually eliminates damage in shipping and subsequent dbor warpage. Called the Anchor-Rite, it is available pre-cut and pre-notched either as a one-piece or a combination model. It saves installation fees and climinates costly drilling in concrete.

According to the manufacturer, it allows the builder to install a door complete with threshold that needs only to be set in plumb. It guarantees that a perfectly fitted threshold with protective cover is in place before subcontractors appear on the scene to do their work. It minimizes the number of subs required to complete construction.

Lumber Market Regained

Former framing markets for utility grade softwood lumber have been regained and expanded by revisions to HUD-FHA minimum property standards.

In 1970, HUD-FHA refused to continue acceptance of utility grade framing for non-bearing partitions and for exterior walls supporting only roof and ceiling loads. FHA claimed the utility grade would not qualify by engineering calculations for these uses.

A cooperative industry association project resulted in favorable utility stud wall tests which proved that2 x 4 utility grade studs of minimum stiffness properties, covered with the minimum acceptable FHA cladding, can withstand lateral loads which greatly exceed required performance.

HUD-FHA has accepted the test results by the issuance of revision Nos. 56 and M-24 to the singlefamily and multifamily minimum property standards. The revision increases allowable stud spacing from 16 inches to 24 inches and removes snow and live load roof limits for utility stud walls.
