Abstract: A multi-story, multi-dwelling, non-elevator, ground floor handicapped accessible, rectangular shape, residential building. The building has a non-protruding stairway on each short side of the building and a centrally located, upper level corridor connecting the stairways.

Abstract: This invention relates to a ball type shut off valve. The valve includes a body having a flow passage therethrough defining a seat. A ball is loosely held within the flow passageway by the two ends of a shaped, flat strip spring which is held in a longitudinal diametral slot, in a cylindrical shaft positioned in and sealed to the body, with the axis of the shaft at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the body, and to the flow path of the fluid. Rotation of the shaft causes the strip spring to rotate and to control the position of the ball relative to the seat. Rotation in one direction causes a first end of the spring to move the ball away from the seat. Rotation of the shaft and the spring in the other direction causes the second end of the spring to move onto the sea and to hold the ball against the seat by the compliance of the second end of the spring.
