Encl: Four drawings |
To Messrs Topf & Sohne
Erfurt
Please find attached a set of modified drawings for the crematorium to be built in Auschwitz Concentration Camp.
These drawings show the desired positions for the ventilation intake and outlet ducts. We would ask you, in any development or change in your project as shown on drawing D 59 366, to adapt as far as possible to the duct positions shown on our drawings.
The intake and outlet ducting above the roof is to be in the form of brick chimneys.
We would ask you to finish this work as soon as possible, in view of the urgency of the construction project. |
