Heavy-Duty Hand Cart
An especially well-balanced and easily-controlled heavy-duty hand cart for moving packages of block or brick on the jobsite has been introduced by Signode Corporation. It enables one man to handle, with ease, a package of 138 4-inch block, 24 8-inch block, or 100 brick.
Special features of the new cart include two sets of dual wheels with pneumatic tires, a hand brake to assure control on slopes and ramps, a heavy-duty, adjustable cross-arm to grip the upper edges of the load and hold it firmly against the cart, and forks that are adjustable both horizontally and vertically.
For easy pickup of loads, the fork assembly is connected to the cart with lockable hinges. Thus, the fork tips can be lowered for easy entry into package voids, after which the body of the cart is tilted forward until the hinges lock. Then, with the cross arm dropped over the package, the cart can be pivoted back with excellent leverage until it bears the package's full weight.
The new heavy-duty hand cart weighs 168 pounds. Further information is available from Signode Corporation, 2600 N. Western Ave., Chicago, III. 60647.

Concrete Retarder
Sample concrete structure (top photo) is removed from form that was coated with "Perma-Tard", Permagile Corporation's concrete surface retarder. "Perma-Tard" is a special coating that is applied to concrete forms before concrete containing stone aggregates is poured into the desired forms. When concrete has cured, it is removed from the form and the uncured ("Perma-Tard" treated) concrete is simply brushed away to expose the stone aggregate of the original concrete mixture.
