Steels PROVO, Utah A Steel Division Monvacation and a a day aftr major face lifting, as the number ' one blast furnace at the big steel mill will be blown in. It takes a lot of bricks to reline a blast furnace. The equivalent of more than 650,000 standard h bricks, enough to build 100 homes, were used in this one rebuild job. The huge fumade was taken out of production Nov. 15, after five years of continuous operation. .It takes a lot of paper, too, to reline a furnace. Geneva engineers and craftsmen used 12Q0 yards of blueprints for the job The drawings were specially prepared by the plants engineering department to the exact specifications required for modern precision steelmak- . 46-d- ay ! - nine-inc- three-bedroo- m The project,1 Superintendent F. Black points out, represents only part of continuing maintenance at a modem steel mill. The rebuild job doesnt add a pound to the plant output, as the'fur-'nac- e capacity" remains the same. All building crafts were represented on the job, which involved a total of 40 Omen working two shifts a day. The complete reline was begun less than seven weeks ago when the giant furnace was shut down., As soon as the furnace cooled, an oneping was cut in the side large enough to rig a drag 'ne. Tons of cinders, iron ore, sag, limestone and worn out brick ,;n:ng were pulled out. Crews of masons moved into the empty steel shell and began the new lining. More than a kinds of special fire bricks "''qMriug five different kinds of mortar were usd to face the 100-'ohigh furnace. The project included reconditioning or replacing all mechanical and electrical equipment, as rell as painting all outside sur 'aces. Foley Electric Co. of Salt Lake City, performed the electrical work for U. S. Steel, while Good- r Construction Co. of Birmingham Ala., was the contractor for th brick work. Consolidated Western Steel lay-mg-- up ien ot U. S. Steeels western and erection division, Di-v;siA- n, fab-rcati- ng ha- nded the steel work on the job.
