The main museum building is like pinwheel, with spiraling around a three-story atrium. The museum’s ramped pathway connects four exhibition wings.
This geometry created challenges in the steel erection and the connections. Through a design assist process, these challenges were eased. The North end of the building is held by a 140 ft long, 30 ft deep and 130,000 lbs truss. LPR Engineering developed a plan to eliminate the need for temporary shoring under the truss.
