THE EMPIRE STATE BUILDING

Since 1931 the Empire State Building has been the tallest structure in the world, 1,250 feet. It is taller than the Eiffel Tower. The Empire State Building is a milestone in tall-building construction. Its height posed a number of problems concerning the stability of the structure itself. It was founded on bedrock at a depth of about 50 feet below the street level. The area of the base is about 2 acres. Its total weight of 302,500 tons; including 67,000 tons of steel, is divided among more than one hundred rolled fabricated steel columns, the largest of which carried 5,000 tons down to the base. These columns rest on broad and heavily reinforced bases of concrete supported in turn on bedrock. The steel columns are subjected to a constant compressive stress by the weight of the structure.

The water-distribution system in the building consists of a series of water tanks at different levels; if the water system were not thus divided, a faucet on a lower floor would be subjected to a pressure of about 600 pounds a per square inch. The building has 69 electric elevators; their maximum speed is 1,000 feet per minute. The building was ready for occupancy 14 months after the first steel element was placed on the footings. There 3,400 workmen of different trades employed on the 104 floors.
