Structural Steel Detailing

Structural Steel Detailing & Design

When building with Structural Steel, using readily sourced profiles, FEA analysis can be used to determine the maximum forces while refining the structure to use minimum material. Strategically addressing and detailing connections is a crucial part of our steel design process. Your specific site conditions and assembly constraints are the unique drivers for every project.

Project

Air Canada Centre

If you are a sports fan, there is a good chance you've seen our work! In 2015, we took on a project designing the Jumbotron Super Structure in the Scotiabank Arena (formerly Air Canada Centre). Hanging 8.5m (28 ft) above the ground, this feature display is 10m (32 ft) high, 15m (50 ft) wide, and weighs 32,885 kg (72,500 lb). The main considerations for a structure this large include aesthetics, modularization, transportation, and hoisting. In addition, installation tolerances were accounted for without compromising strength and longevity.
