Case Study #4: Steel Column Integration at Glass Walls

  • The Problem:
    A massive 40′ structural beam required vertical steel columns supports for a large glass wall — risking disruption of clean sightlines.

  • My Recommendation:
    Precisely locate columns behind window wall mullions to hide the structural elements without compromising performance.

  • Coordination & Execution:
    I performed on-site measurements and guided adjustments to structural layout during rough framing.

  • Result:
    Achieved uninterrupted glass walls with no visible vertical steel — keeping the architecture clean and open.
