Abstract:

Established to promote greater public understanding of the United States Constitution, the National Constitution Center facility in Philadelphia is a structure of complex geometries articulated in limestone, granite, and glass. The design—conceived to reflect the enduring strength of the United States Constitution—relies on an elaborate frame of interconnected steel systems to achieve its bold structural form.
