Primary project components:

 

  • Custom unitized curtainwall solution: W.L. Hall Company suggested a custom unitized curtainwall that met the building's extreme structural and thermal performance requirements.

 

  • Regular meetings: W.L. Hall Company's drafting and design team brought in engineers from the curtainwall manufacturer. The team scheduled approximately eight weekly meetings at BWBR's office along with Kraus-Anderson Construction & Erie Architectural Products


  • Cost-efficient option: The team partnered at every step to provide the most cost-efficient option possible while ensuring that none of the thermal requirements of the project were compromised.


  • Cost-saving measures: Throughout the design-assist process, W.L. Hall Company suggested dozens of cost-saving measures that allowed the architectural team to achieve the aesthetic look they desired without adding unnecessary cost to the project.


  • Early project completion: The project was turned over months earlier than the original schedule projected due to the successful collaboration between the teams.


  • Few punch-list items: The teams completed the installation in record time, and the project received virtually zero punch-list items upon completion.
