DESCRIPTION
At Carnegie Mellon University’s Robotics facility, our team completed a comprehensive exterior envelope package featuring a range of specialty metal panel systems engineered for performance, precision, and long-term durability.
We installed SWL, SLR, F-12, and MX panel systems complete with clips and closures, delivering a clean, modern façade that reflects the advanced research taking place inside the building to support the architectural vision. We installed the roof gypsum boards, vapor retarder, insulation, underlayment membrane and the standing seam roof panels on the roof. At the walls we installed the green girts, insulation, metal wall panels, gutters, downspouts, and flashings.
Our scope also featured custom aluminum plate shrouds and additional fabricated components designed to meet the project’s unique geometries and interface conditions.
The finished envelope showcases our ability to integrate multiple panel systems and assemblies into a seamless architectural solution, reinforcing our reputation for excellence in complex exterior façade construction.
