You have to be a special kind of masochist to love this...

Steel arches in the ceiling of the PATH Transit Hall Station...

Portal Frames in the PATH Upper Transit Hall.
An area large enough to fit Grand Central Station with space to spare.

A better view of the Portal Frames in the "Occulus".

Wouldn't it be nice to survey some regular steel shapes out of the AISC manual?
Now, if only the geometry wasn't a corkscrew...

[sarcasm]You got to love a job like this.[/sarcasm]

If at first you don't succeed....get out a big torch and a big sledge hammer and make it fit. Who'll ever know a thousand years from now.

I built a 6 story parking garage in Omaha NE, Circa 1985. I know what kind of math it took to put that together; I can't IMAGINE the math it took to build your job, I'm in awe.......

Well, maybe I can, I read ALL of your posts....

Thanks for posting here....
