cloud713 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 It's just so nice seeing some steel construction in this town (the other being MATCH) when it's completely dominated by concrete (which I love concrete), but there is just something about steel construction that is just great to watchShout out to Phillips 66.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UtterlyUrban Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Could one of the engineers on the board help me understand why the garage structure will be steel? I would have guessed that this would have been concrete like the rest of the building. What were the trade offs the designers had to consider that might have led them to steel?Help? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
