Damaged by earthquake; Calexico, 400 yards from Mexican boundary, a 2 story apartment and single story residence owned by J.O. Guatenama at 605 East 2nd Street. The 5 room residence was 18 months old and valued at $12,000 (33' x 60' with porch); the apartment was 6 months old, valued at $15,000 and was 27' x 48' with porches. The former had a light roof of roll roofing, exterior walls of 12" width of adobe brick laid in mud mortar. It was well built with concrete footings and a bond stone at the top of each story, the outside porch for the 2nd story was a cantilever sprung from the concrete bond stone. Wire lath was used around the wood linteles, for the porch posts and enclosure above. Nails were driven into adobe brick to hold stucco and plaster. On second story plaster and stucco were cracked in one or two places only. On 1st story all plaster and stucco were loosened and were being removed. The adobe bricks showed shear cracks in several places on lower part of wall but would probably only be removed at one corner and at center of rear wall on the apartment.

The residence had exterior walls 24" thick and 12" partition wall lengthwise of house. The tile on the roof totaled 46,000 lbs according to Mr. Guaderrama; only 4 were displaced by the shake. (a & c) show the pieces of stucco still clinging to the residence as it was left following the shake. (d) shows the interior of the residence - the plaster and oil finish cost $1200.

Slightly damaged by earthquake. K.B. Correll Ranch 3 mi. North of Calexico; The house was built in 1923 of 4" x 12" x 16" block using 12" exterior walls and one partition wall of same thickness. It is approximately 30' x 40' with wood frame kitchen at end. Railroad ties were only foundation, every fifth course woven wire fencing was cut the width of the wall and laid in mortar joint. This undoubtedly held the wall together as adobes showed but a few minor cracks although interior plaster was badly broken. A wood plate and 2" x 10" joists were used, the joists left open at the ends to leave ventilation space. From 2 to 6" of puddled earth was placed above a top sheathing on the joists but as this leaked a roll roofing was placed on top of earth 2 years ago. There was no exterior coating and the bricks showed but little evidence of a 3.8" rain in as many days early in the month. A concrete floor throughout house had proven cold at first but since painting and waxing to break conductivity had been very acceptable. A fireplace was formed of adobes lined inside with cement plaster. The cost of the structure was about the same as a wood frame house of similar design. It averages 20 degrees cooler than the wood frame kitchen if kept closed and 10 degrees if opened.

Scope and Content Note

"The floor was installed in 1921, about 2" thick over a sand and stone concrete base. Nine parts of reasonably dry sawdust are mixed with seven parts of cement. No sand is used but a lot of water is required. It is put on immediately after the first layer is struck off and allowed to set in two weeks. After a month you can drive over it. The hedding is peanut hulls. The floor is not supposed to save bedding but makes the cows "more contented" and saves swollen joints. There are lots of barns so equipped around Mt. Holly and some in Pennsylvania."

Scope and Content Note

8" x 8" redwood post set in concrete. Posts removed from corralls at horse barn when new fences were erected. Out of about a dozen posts examined, three only showed evidences of having rot under the concrete. This could have been prevented probably by pouring a tar filling in the crack about the post after the concrete set and also by making certain that the top of the concrete was well above the ground, to prevent water standing on it. The old fence was removed after 12 years service because of the tops of posts and rails being eaten up by the horses. The new fence was protected by strands of barbed wire along the rails and strap iron on the posts.
