Architecturally and structurally unique, this project presented engineering challenges. GrayWolf’s proactive approach to coordination and cooperation with all team members was critical to success.

At each end of the five-story main structure, there are 8’ tall plate girders cantilevered over two floors below and the floors below are cantilevered and suspended from the roof level girders. Each floor was 4” above its final position when first erected but settled to the correct finish floor elevation after all building components were installed. Each side of the building was created using a girder truss that ran the length and height of the building.

The long spans of diagonal steel created challenges for attachment to the main structure, which were coordinated with the exterior cladding. Cladding for the building was created by a framework of tubes that support a perforated scrim panel system. Each floor level has its own exterior network of grating walkways between the building exterior and the scrim framing window washing and maintenance.
