Hy-Rib is a Ribbed Steel Lath which needs supports at 10 ft. centres only, and
readily takes 2 in. of cement plaster. Its use ensures the most rapid permanent con-
struction possible, the building costs little or nothing for maintenance and is superior in
every way to the usual type of building.

Illustration shows the Sharlston Colliery Co.’s Pit Head Buildings,
greeted on this principle.

No more unsightly buildings

The nature: of the ground in colliery districts necessitates a light

gives

the desired

lightness, but is far more attractive in appearance.
