Field Office Take to Wheels.
The construction shanty, long an eye-sore around new building projects, is a thing of the past. Modern construction companies have taken to wheels, using attractive trailers like this one recently put in service by F.H. McGraw & Co. for field offices. Trailer is equipped with heating system and toilet facilities and has built-in desks and cabinets to allow maximum working space for superintendent, engineer and accountant. Because of current costs--$700 to $2000--of temporary field offices, McGraw estimates that trailers pay for themselves in one year.
