Contrarian Metal Resources of Pittsburgh, PA, supplied nearly 6,000 sq. ft. of its proprietary Starlight 2J-finish stainless steel for fabrication into exterior solar reflectors and interior metal wall panels at the new Baltimore College of Dental Surgery in Baltimore, MD. The exterior and interior metal panels were fabricated by Bunting of Verona, PA, and installed by Allegheny Millwork of Lawrence, PA. Bohlin Cywinski Jackson of Baltimore designed the 10-story building, which opened in October 2006.

Soaring above Brooklyn’s thriving Fort Greene neighborhood, BAM South is a monument to the growing design possibilities associated with metal architecture and sophisticated design and modeling software. Designed by Enrique Norten of TEN Arquitectos, the 32-story structure features Reynobond aluminum composite material (ACM) panels by Alcoa Architectural Products (now Arconic Architectural Products) fabricated into pans and finished with Duranar XL fluoropolymer coatings by PPG.

The Bangor Housing Authority in Bangor, ME, inherited 95 buildings from the US Government. Built in the 1950’s, the homes were originally constructed for the local Air Force base to house enlisted personnel. Since the time they were built, the roofing on the buildings has been the focus of many construction projects. The current asphalt roof was installed 12 – 15 years ago, and upon inspection it was found to have problems with water infiltration requiring extensive maintenance and repair. Stone-coated steel roofing by DECRA offered the solution.

Approximately 9,000 sq. ft. of Petersen Snap-On standing seam roof panels provided key architectural branding elements for the new Bank of Georgia located in Newnan, GA. The straight and radiused 24 gauge panels were finished in PAC-CLAD® Kynar 500® Medium Bronze.

The recently expanded campus of Baptist Hospital East features a new Outpatient Surgery and Patient Bed Tower Facility clad in Kingspan Benchmark panels. Windows also wrap the Park Tower, providing patients and employees with plenty of daylight and views of the surrounding greenery. Engberg Anderson collaborated with Kingspan Benchmark on the $72 million outpatient facility. The Park Tower features roughly 18,000 square feet of Kingspan Benchmark Designwall 2000H Striated panels. They are finished in sandstone and white and striated to provide an attractive linear shadowing effect to the walls.

Richard Rogers partnership specified some 2.5 million sq. ft. of Kalzip 65/400 stucco-embossed aluminum panels for its design of a new main terminal at Madrid's Barajas Airport. The building is comprised of 240 modules, each measuring 29-1/2’ wide by 246’ long. The roof of each module arches in opposite directions, similar to the wings of a bird, leading to aircraft gates at the opposite tip. Kalzip panels, some of which are tapered, were laid lengthways and curved into a complex shape. The decking below was formed from pre-curved perforated aluminum panels, followed by a double layer of slab insulation. The composite assembly is said to provide outstanding acoustical performance, protecting passengers and terminal workers from aircraft noise outside.

Quillian Powell Construction Company Inc., an American Buildings Company (ABC) Authorized Builder, created a unique metal storage unit with dual function as a hangout spot and storage building in Lake Park, Georgia. The building was designed to hold an antique collection of John Deere two-cylinder tractors and vehicles, while also serving as a weekend getaway.

Metal roofing from Petersen plays a big role in the new Barrow County Innovation Amphitheater’s design – especially in a clamshell layout over the stage that provided an opportunity for installers to showcase their skills.

Kids in Bartlesville, Oklahoma have a new place to play and learn. And thanks to insulated metal wall panels from Kingspan, the building looks every bit as fun on the outside as it is on the inside.

The Leland Olds Station, located near Stanton, ND, is the first power plant for Basin Electric Power Cooperative - one of the largest electric generation and transmissions cooperatives in the United States. CENTRIA’s Versawall and Versapanel insulated metal composite panels were selected for the Leland Olds Station because of their outstanding performance features, as well as their superior benefits in terms of sustainability and aesthetics.

Bass Pro Shops brands itself as a supplier of performance products designed to endure the great outdoors, but at its Pearl, Miss., store, the roof was falling short of that standard. Though it was barely more than 10 years old, the roof’s mix of membrane and metal was already beginning to fail when a severe weather event prompted a reroofing initiative featuring metal panels from Petersen.

This structure for Bastoni Vineyards in Santa Rosa, CA measures 35’ wide x 60’ long x 24’ high with a 2,100 sq. ft. metal roof installed on a 4:12 slope. A Star Building Systems metal building was chosen for its economy, low maintenance and durability and also the ability to achieve the clear span and height requirements.

Air pollution from dust, soot and smoke from diesel vehicles is an ongoing issue in Bogotá, Colombia, the second largest city in South America, and home to over 1.5 million cars and over 100,000 public service vehicles that use diesel fuel. To withstand such an environment, the new Bavaria S.A. corporate headquarters was clad with Reynobond® Aluminum Composite Material (ACM) finished with Alcoa Architectural Products’ (AAP) groundbreaking EcoClean™ coating.

The Bay Area Fellowship Church in Corpus Christi, TX, is considered one of the fastest growing churches in the United States. To continue its growth, the progressive, media-driven church has undertaken a two-phased construction project on a 90-acre site. The recently completed Phase 1 provides 92,000 sq. ft. of worship and educational space within a building that's contemporary in design. Featured on its exterior is nearly 37,000 sq. ft. of Metl-Span CF Architectural Wall Panels.

When the Bay County Board of Commissioners approved the construction of a new 123,000 sq. ft. administration complex in Panama City, Florida, visual compatibility with an adjacent building was required.

The clubhouse at the new Bay Forest residential community in Ocean View, DE provides a signature look for the 800-home development by Natelli Communities, Gaithersburg, MD. Approximately 11,500 sq. ft. of Petersen Snap-Clad panels were used on the clubhouse. An additional 3,500 sq. ft. of Snap-Clad panels were used on the tennis pavilion and postal facility. The .032 aluminum panels were finished in Silver.

The $127-million Baylor Charles A. Sammons Cancer Center in Dallas, Texas is an outpatient cancer treatment facility that receives more than 90,000 visits annually. The center, connected to the pre-existing inpatient areas of the Baylor University Medical Center campus by a sky bridge, provides a rest area for visitors and connects to the medical center’s parking garages. A sustainable project featuring architectural metal products from CENTRIA, this structure has received LEED Gold certification.

Bayside Village is an off-campus student housing community in Portland, ME. The 200,000 sq. ft. building, serving students from any of six colleges in the Portland area, was designed to both stand out and blend with Portland's architectural vernacular.
