Aviation Buildings with a Future

 . . . moderate investments today provides practical facilities for tomorrow's needs

[left column]
Ships have not only kept pace with the growth of air travel but have largely anticipated new traffic demands. Aviation buildings for the most part have not. Today, many air terminals, hangars and aircraft plants are over-taxed, obsolete and inadequate.
  To provide hangars, assembly plants and terminal structures which not only satisfy immediate demands but flexible enough to design to meet future requirements as well, has long been an established Austin policy.
  In view of the constant increase in the size of ships, the task of providing for simple and economical future expansion of hangars and assembly plants is a problem to which Austin Engineers have devoted considerate attention. The result has been designs which can be built at moderate costs with clear spans to house the largest ships going into service today, but also permitting of future expansions to accommodate aircraft twice the size on an economical and practical basis.
  Over a period of 20 years, the experience of the Austin organization in the Aviation Industry has been broad and

intensive. Projects handled include the layout, design and construction of complete airports, the design and construction of aircraft manufacturing plants, assembly and accessory plants, dirigible docks, hangars, administration buildings, wind tunnels and mooring masts. These projects are to be found in 74 cities from Coast to Coast and in 32 States.
  For aviation projects of practically any type, size or character, Austin has the experience, the personnel, and Coast to Coast Offices to offer worthwhile assistance to executive in all branches of the industry.
  Under the Austin Method of Undivided Responsibility, the layout, design and construction of the complete project is handled by one organization, under one contract which guaranties in advance: moderate costs; high quality of workmanship and materials; time of completion, with bonus and penalty clause if desired.
  Contact any Austin Office . . . approximate costs on the expandable hangar design and other aviation structures will be gladly furnished promptly and without obligation.
