Manetti Shrem Museum of Art Documented in Modern Steel Construction

Read the article, starting on pg 24 of the latest issue of Modern Steel Construction Front collaborated with SO-IL during the design process, developing options to meet the canopy’s numerous design constraints and custom details for the frameless 14 ft (4.3m) tall, curved, laminated glass walls with integrated glass doors. Front was additionally engaged by the facade contractor to produce shop drawings, calculations, fabrication drawings, and providing factory review. Front used parametric techniques and Building Information Modeling (BIM) to auto-generate digital and paper fabrication information for the project’s 910 beams, all with unique off-cuts and splice locations.
