Open Air Steel Structure Canopies & Trellises
Sponsored By CEAS+
Presented By Jason Smith
1 AIA HSW/LU CE Hour(s)

Masterfully presented, this fast-paced presentation will leave architects feeling inspired, educated, even entertained as we explore a new way of designing and delivering custom canopies & trellises in all sectors.

Learning Objectives:
  1. Open air steel structures allow building occupants to be protected from elements at entrances, rooftops, courtyards and walkways outside, yet connected to the benefits of nature.
  2. Identify several environmental goals, including how factory powder coat painted structures means job sites are cleaner and more environmentally friendly.
  3. Discussion on how bolt together structures install up to 75% faster, often times cost less, while at the same time offer far superior finish in contrast with conventional construction.
  4. Pre-fabricated (erector set) systems are safer to install, eliminating on-site welding, grinding, minimizing drilling and cutting with fewer trades on-site.
