WHATEVER SIZE DUMPER YOU WANT... MAKE SURE

IT'S A LINER Roughrider'

THEY HAVE TOUGHNESS BUILT IN

Roughriders are hard at work

on difficult sites all over the world... and earning a great reputation for reliability and economy. Cost of spares supplied is under 1% of total sales value.

Other Liner machines include TILTING DRUM CONCRETE MIXERS

REVERSING DRUM MIXERS ALL-HYDRAULIC MIXERS CUMFLOW MIXERS ROLPANIT MIXERS

PORTASAWS & BLOCK MACHINES

All-in-line transmission without belts or chains.

Patented 2-position skip facilitates loading from low-discharge mixers.

Constant mesh change-on-move gearbox with three forward and reverse speeds.

Lifting eyes for loading on vehicles and off-loading.

Low centre of gravity enables the Roughrider to operate under adverse conditions.

Light steering and small turning circle-ideal for narrow roads. Alternative skip available for crane use.

Plastic weekend house

steel feet, its body being of polyester plastic strengthened with glass fibre. The wall cladding consists of 16 segments which can easily be trans- ported; the total weight is 1,000 kilogrammes.

The interior is fitted out like an aircraft. Plastic seats can be converted into beds and a lamp is fitted into every arm. The useful area of the house is about 165 sq. ft. Doors operate with the same system as in air-planes. When pulled down the front door can be used as stairs. A heating and ventilation system is installed under the floor.

San Francisco clinics and car park scheme

Some 26 medical departments and 700 cars will be housed in a multi-level structure to be started soon at the University of California Medical Centre, San Francisco.

The six-floor parking structure will be dug into the sloping site, which has an elevation differential of 100 ft., and this will be surmounted by the nine- storey clinics building. A central service core in the clinics building will be surrounded by a 35 ft. clear span clinics area on all floors.

The concrete core structure is the major resisting element for seismic forces and the 35 ft. clear span

is a coffer slab with the coffer exposed at the peripheral corridor area cantilever. For the parking structure. a concrete-clad steel column and in situ slab construction will be used, with peripheral spandrel beams to resist seismic forces.
