HYBRID BOW-STRING TRUSSES
The building's most notable materials are the glulam/steel hybrid bow-string trusses, which incorporate a 105'1" long glulam beam, making it one of the longest clear-span glulam beams used in a structure.
TENSION RODS
The building also utilizes 150 KSI high-strength steel tension rods/components, which are four times stronger than typical steel. To protect the steel components from the caustic pool environment, a Tnemec paint coating was applied. The use of these materials and design elements creates a unique and durable building that will stand the test of time.
