In either case the walls of the chimney shall be securely bended into the walls of the building, no cr_imney shall be corbled fror a hollow tile, building tile shall have fire :;lay flue lining. Chimneys shall be built at least v feet above flat roofs, and two feet above the ridges of peak roofs, and shall be--ronerly capped with stone, terra cotta, concrete, cast iron, or other approved material; but no such cap or coping shall decrease the required flue area. Eire clay flue lining, shall be manufactured from suitable refractory clay, either natural or compounded, which has, which has a softenin-- poinnot lower than 1994 degrees ?aherrtheit (Seger Jone 03), and shall be adapted to '.withstand high temperatures and flue gases. 'hely shall be of satinlard commercial thickness, but not less than i inch. The flue sec- tions shall be set in n ortarof duality hereafter specified and shall have the joints struck mmooth on the inside. The masonry shall be built around each section of lining as it is placed, and all spaces between masonry and linings shall be completely filled with mortar,. ?;o broken flue lining shall be used. Flue linings shall start at least 4 inches below the bottom of sr,:okepipe intakes of flues, or from the throats of fireplaces, and shall be continuous the entire heights of the flues and project at least 4 inches above chimney top to allow fpr a two inch wash and a two inch projection of lining. The wash or splay shall be forn.ed of a rich cement mortar. To irnnrove the draft the wash surface should be concave wherever practical. Instaed of the wash, a special chimney cap or coping may be used. ;iherever flue linings are specified fire brick ray be substituted if desired. Chirneys shall not rest upon or be carried by wooden floors, beams or brackets, nor be hung from: wooden rafters. Iron brackets or stirrups attached to wooden construction shall not be used to support chimneys. In frame buildings chimneys shall always be built frou the ground up, or rest on basement walls. Chimneys shall be build upon concrete or masonry foundati -ons properly proportioned to carry the weight imposed with- out danger danger of settlement or cracking. The foundation for an exterior chimney shall start below the frost line. The walls of brick buildings may form part of a chimney, but the walls of the chimney shall be securely bonded into the walls of the building, and the flue shall be lined the same as an independent chimney. Flues in party walls shall not extend beyond the center of the walls, and their location shall be permanently indicated on the exposed side of the wall. No wall leis than I2 inches shall be used to support a corbelled chimney; such corbling shall not project more than 8 inches from the face of the gall, and in all such cases the corbeling shall consist of at least six coarses of brick. Flues shall be build as nearly vertical as possible, and shall not be set o7er between ceiling and roof. Not more than two flues shall be permitted in the same flue space, and the joints of any twc adjoining sets of flue lining;_, shall be offset at least 7 inches. .then there are more than two flues in a chimney at least each third flue shall be seperated from the others by a smoke -tight withe division wall of brick or cocrete at least inch and bonded into the sidewalis. Each flue intended for a heating furnace or boiler connections, or for a fireplace, shall be sperated from other fluess by such a withe. In hollow tile chimneys 211 the withe may be of tile. When any single flue area within chimney walls exeeeds 200 square inches, the walls shall be built not less than 8 inches thick and shall have fire clay flue liningas previously specified, but when flues become so large as to render it im- practical to secure fire clay lining, they shall be lined with fire brick for a distance of at least 25 feet from the point of intake. Fire brick shall be laid in fire clay mortar.
