Beam of patent hollow bricks breaks under thirty six tons
White and Son tested patent hollow brickwork with a beam outside the Crystal Palace. The beam failed under a weight of thirty six tons and thirty two pounds as shown in the engraving. Warner and Co. advertise a new vibrating standard pump patent at 8 Crescent Jewin Street City. The device is said to be simpler cheaper and easier in action than typical lifts. Builders and house proprietors are urged to adopt it.
