Here's one building that you won't mind taking down next year.
The Kelly Klosure system can be used for relocatable buildings and construction enclosures because all of the panels are interchangeable and interlock together with a quick key. There isn't an easier enclosure or building to enlarge, reduce or move, and everything about Kelly is reusable which eliminates your replacement costs.
That's why contractors all over the U.S., Canada and the Middle East are relying on the Kelly Klosure system to solve temporary problems relating to weather enclosing, security, storage, portable offices, fab shops and even living quarters.
The Kelly panels are pre-engineered enabling you to occupy your building in half the time required for conventional structures, and they go together the next time in a repetitive manner reducing your labor costs. The first time you use the system, Kelly and our distributors will help design and lay out your needs. And then when you're ready to move the system, your entire investment goes along.

Lightweight Brick Helps Trim Construction Costs
A recently completed survey comparing the construction costs of conventional brick vs. a new he slim brick product (3½" x 11½") contains some significant findings for both architects and mason contractors.
The survey was undertaken by Tomlin & Schultz, a construction estimating firm based in Pasadena. Calif. Utilizing a theoretical structurally supporting wall 20 ft. high by 60 ft. long, the firm concluded that the new lightweight product. Mini-Brick, averages $1.50 to $2.75 less per square foot in construction expenses than continental size face brick (3½" x 11½" x 3" deep).
The figures are based on labor, material and equipment costs in the Southern California marketplace during February. 1978. Depending on the variances in other regions of the country, a cost differential would exist.
