To accomplish this I am set int forth tWO designs- the one of cistomary wood frame construction. giv- ing the detailed cost of all wood that enters into its constric- tion, and the other- for purposes of comparison- the sane resi- dence with steel framinL and reinforce. concrete floors with the corresponding itemized bill of material and the upgroximate cost of construction. Aside from an occasional reference to tne plans and specifi- cations of the wood frame house. I prepose to consider this part of the problen conpteted with the presentation of the floor plans elevation drawings, bill of material and cost. and a couplete set of specifications. She actial oonparison with the steel frame constriction will be postpone-d intil later in the thesis. Jntil about twenty years ago. the steeL frame h0188 was in its infancy and almost inheard of, bit after this relatively long period of experiment and devolOpment. the 188 of steel in 2. 1 snail residence constriction nus reached a point of practi- oility and plolic acceptance that warrants the attention of progressive blilders. ;here are now edOiih steel frame houses that have been OCClpied from one-half to three years or more to indicate the indelal characteristics LhiCh SLCH constr 0- tion offers to a typical residenCe. before oesoribint the partiCllar -flpe of cone rootion that will be used in this steel house, it is importan. to an- swer a number of questions that innediatoly arise in the mind of any prospective billder,be he a sablrban developer or an ordinary investment blilder. One of these questions is “how do inslrance companies l00$ upon steel frame hclses as soxnd invcstment rises?" One of the great innirance coup nies which lends millions of dallars has accepted annually several applic- ations for loans upon steel frame dwellings. also it is inter- estint .0 note that a construction engineer assitned to the sur- vey as to whether they furnished a ready marhet in case of for- ced sale. and whether they demanded a legimate preminn in con- parison with that paid for tne normal loan,and whether the con- struction was soxnd, reported the construction sound, reconnen- an appraisal l0} higher than for light wooden strictures. and becalse of the approximate 104 increase in cost of steel fra- ming. the coupany recognized the premium paid as a sound in- vestment. The next question that arises is in connection with the inelrance retina. lnthe case of a steel hOlse in lndianapOlis. the prevailing rate for frame cOastrletion in the llburb in which it was located was 55¢ per ;1000 fer'threo years. 5. The rate granted for the fireproof steel construction was 451 for the some period. in Columbus. Ohio, the steel frame hOise received a rating of 12; per 3100 annlally over against the wood frame rate of 161 per $100 per year. In still another case the New Yort State “Board of Fire Jnderwriters indicated that where fire alarm ooxes and hydrants are installed in the vic- inity of a steel frame house. the regular rate of 50; per 3lOO woald become 30! per 3100. ObviOlsly. insurance companies recoinize the steel home as being fireproof and was“ 18 step to consider t.e percen- tage of our £4,000,000 homes that are destroyed oy fire each year, namely about 2% or 480,000 homes. the consideration of fireproofness is a worth while item for prOSpective blilders to remember. Next comes the question as to the advantages of steel construction to the tenant. This is perhaps the most impor- tant consideration since in it is reflected the attitude of future buyers and tenatts. lnthe first place. residers in steel frame houses claim for them “an utter lace of noise and vibration in the entire structire during high winds. improvement of acculstical prop- erties over ordinary wood construction and the fact that trans- mission of sound thPOth walls and partitions is minimized.to- tether with the fact that heat transmission throxgh walls seems less than is the case with ordinary siding construction or even brick veneer or stucco on wood.” there is stressed also the free- dom from plaster cracks. rigidity of interior construction. adaptability to all forms of architecture both in outside de- sign and also in the layout and firnishing of rOOmS. Jith these few paragraphs it becomes obvious thai,the 4. quality of steel frame houses is much higher than the qual- ity of an equivalent wood construction. 5.

The cost of the wood frame is increased an amount of approximntely9%“m which is an estimate of tr is cost of erec- tion nec‘e by an experienced contractor. :he erection of the steel frame would cost’cwoo this es- timate furnished through the courtesy of the Lansing Steel Corporation, fr. Ern mm, Engineer. The steel frame is erectee by welding there being 1230 lineal inches of weld needed. Tne conclusion drawn from this investigation into the rel- ative costs of wood and steel frame construction in residences leads us to the facts that an increase in cost of only slightly over ten per.c ent of the latter desi n as compared with the dis- advantages and inferior construction of wood frame construction, will bring back to the owner and resider in the steel home,with its crack-proof, rigid fire proof. and sound resistant walls. a return on investment scarcely comparable to the small in- crease in original cost.
