THIRD METAL AGE ARCHITECTURE
The Iron Age followed the Bronze Age, and we are now passing into the Third Metal Age, the Age of Aluminium. At the moment wartime conditions are restricting supplies; but Aluminium is the in- evitable metal of the future, for the supplies of raw material are unlimited. Imagine what Aluminium and its Alloys can do for building and structural technique.
As the largest distributors of Aluminium in the British Empire our research laboratories are con- tinually investigating possibilities of its application. Some of the results of research are contained in a book we have published Aluminium in Architectural Work. It contains facts, diagrams and technical illustrations. If you have not received a copy please write to our Sales Agents.
