Linel's scope on this project included the engineering, fabrication and installation of the exterior and interior sunshade, grilles, panels and cladding. The exterior scope includes the dual radius rotunda which is tighter at the ends with a larger radius in the main portion. The crown is comprised of an outer ring, 36 inches deep by 24 feet long, stretch formed to a true radius connected to secondary supports. Primary supports are clad with finished aluminum panels custom painted to match the true zinc panels used just behind the upper crown. Four successive lower sunshade rings fabricated in segmented sections; all follow the varying radii. The interior scope follows the exterior radius with custom fabricated continuous convector grilles and covers.
