Not illustrated. 1922 Excerpt: ...efforts to determine the cause of the collapse of the Knickerbocker Theatre in Washington on the evening of January 28, resulting in the death of upwards of a hundred people. Until their reports are made public, the exact manner in which the structure failed, as well as the particular wall, truss member, column or detail that first gave way, will be conjecture. Perhaps, after the investigations have been finished, there will be disagreement concerning this point, but there is one obvious fact even now, that is, --if we disregard the rather slim possibility that there has been serious though undetected deterioration of the structure or some of its elements since erection, --the building was not built sufliciently strong in all its structural parts to withstand a snow load of some twenty--eight to thirty inches. To know whether the structure was uniformly weak, or whether some detail, some link in the structural chain, was alone responsible for the collapse, will, of course, be of interest and value, but regardless of the verdict, the safety of the public and incidentally the reputation of the architectural profession lies in so designing, detailing and superintending the construction of buildings that the factor of safety that is dictated by good practice actually exists in the finished structure. Too often it has been absorbed by faulty design, unscientific de tails, or cheap construction. 'X THE AMERICAN ARCHITECT HAS FOR years advocated the definite specification. The subject is always opportune. At a recent meeting of The American Specification Institute several members discussed the vexed subject and some good suggestions were made. The best were those advocating the principle of deciding what was wanted and getting it. A general specification follo.
