WHAT WE DID

Creating an alternate erection plan for the 2 largest steel lifts in North American history.

ABOUT THIS PROJECT

Ruby+Associates worked closely with the steel fabricator and erection team to develop an alternate erection plan that resulted in some of the largest steel assembly lifts in North American history. This innovative solution used portions of the roof trusses as supporting structures for strand jack lifting equipment. In 2003, Ruby was awarded Eminent Conceptor from ACEC/M – MSPE Engineering Excellence Awards, as well as the Steel Systems Excellence Award from GLFEA/MSPE/SEAMi for our work on this project.
