Wropped Lumber Sqfe ln Outdoor Storoge

Dry lumber properly wrapped in paper or plastic film can be stored outdoors at least a year. It will still be dry lumber.

A l2-month study just completed at Portland, Ore., by the Western Pine Association's research laboratory found that such wrapped lumber changed less than 2.5/o in average moisture content despite being sloshed by 33.5 inches of rain. Wrapping costs were found to vary from $1.14 to $2.06 per thousand board feet.

Wrippings tested were a reinforced paper lumber wrap and a polyethylene film. Both proved up. Both are products carried at retail lumber yards for use for construction work.

The study was planned as an aid to lumber retailers, processors, builders and others who need extra storage capacity.

"We wanted to find out exactly what happens when seasoned lumber is set out in wrapped packages," said Carl A. Rasmussen, Western Pine's director of research. "Of course, millwork firms and others have been storing lumber this way for some time, with excellent results. We can foresee a great growth in outdoor storage now that the pioneering has been done."

Details of the findings are told in Research Note No. 6,711 of the Western Pine Association, Yeon Bldg., Portland, Ore.

New Storoge Govers Developed

Tough, waterproof Sisalkraft Storage Covers are the most recent innovation in outdoor protection. These new, prefabricated covers have been developed to provide inexpensive protection for all building materials from sun and rain. In addition, many lumber dealers have found that Sisalkraft Covers mainiain excellent humidity control for standard units by preventing rapid drying out of the lumber. Another gain that dealers have discovered is that by using Sisalkraft Storage Covers they are now obtaining additional value from formerly unused outdoor yard areas. Sisalkraft Storage Covers were originally successfully developed for the lumber mills in the Northwest. More recently, the covers were introduced in various areas in the West to retail lumber and building material dealers, where they have met with widespread acceptance.

These easily handled, especially designed covers come in sizes from four to twenty feet long, in varying widths. They are available throughout the West from American Sisalkraft Corporation, San Francisco, ancl the company's distributors.

New ADCO Foldowoy Door Unir Scoring Huge Success

The new ADCO Foldaway Door lJnit, manufactured by the Artesia Door Co., Artesia, Calif., is meeting with enthusiasm by dealers and builders alike. In the main, this is due to the new hardware developed to be used exclusively with ls/s" doors. To establish a standard of how strong folding door hardware should be, all hardware tested during development was attached to a Masonite unit 8' wide an-d 8' high. It was ADCO's belief that if folding door hardware could withstand all possible abuse given an opening of this size and height, it would then provide a more than generous safety factor for any opening size smaller than the one tested.

All folding door hardware up to this point had beer, manufactured by various companies with the idea it could be used for all thicknesses from 3f,, to l3/s,, thick. ADCO felt this was fine for over-the-counter sales where the hardware might be used for small cabinets or small wardrobe openings. This did not, however, fill the need for larger openings which, unlike cabinet doors, would be subjected to far greater usage and, in some cases, rough treatment.

The hardware finally selected to be manufactured by ADCO after months of research features a husky, all-steel, spring-loaded top pivot which is installed into the folding door unit during the door assembly process, making the pivot an integral part of the door.
