National Guard Hangar

The building features transverse frames running crossways, which is oppsite of normal, and parallel with the direction of the ridge as opposed to typical custom designed building construction. Exterior walls were masonry to 12ft, then SSI installed insulated panels horizontally for aethetic purposes. The base design standard called for a 3:12 pitch on the roof creating a challenge because of hte enormous eave heights that would be created. The team solved this with a clerestory, which broke the roof lines to comply "in spirit" with the base design standards but also allowed natural lighting into the hanger bays.
