Concrete applied under pressure has fire-resisting qualities which cannot be obtained from other cementitious coatings, or concrete of several times its thickness. This is due to its density—absence of porosity—its greater adhesive qualities, and its extreme com- pressive and tensile strength. A satisfactory coating of 2 inches in thickness following the contour of the members relieves the struc- ture from the excessive weight of a thick concrete covering. the Prussian Commission on Falls of Stone and Coal.
