SCPI CONSIDERS NEW HEADQUARTERS BUILDING
WASHINGTON, D. C. The Structural Clay Products Institute has announced that its Executive Committee has under consideration a proposal for a new and larger headquarters building perhaps in the Washington, D.C., area to house all of its engineering, promotion, research, and administrative staff and functions.
The matter will be referred to the SCPI convention which meets in November for final action.
Construction of larger headquarters facilities, perhaps in the environs of The National Capital, will bring all of the SCPI activities into a single location, and will be a continuation of plans begun at the 1963 convention of the Institute. At that time, the Structural Clay Products Research Foundation was merged into the Institute and became SCPI's Research Division.
All SCPI activities except research are now housed in Washington, in a building near DuPont Circle. The Research Division is presently located in Geneva, III.
