Gratec

Glass Canopies

200 East Broad Street

Architect: Pazdan-Smith Group

Highlights: Gratec furnished an engineered system for this set of three canopies. Complete with bent laminated tempered glass, rolled aluminum purlins, and stainless steel hardware, these kits were installed on steel outriggers provided as part of the structural system. The engineering design included not only analyzing the performance capacity of the componentsm but locating the point-support fittings on the bent glass to maintain proper fit and seal.
