For the reconstruction of a high school in the United Kingdom, the project team removed concrete spandrel panels and installed a new steel structure for added floor area and a unitized curtain wall of translucent fiber-reinforced polymer. This pumped more daylight into classrooms without unwanted gains to heating and cooling loads. Photo courtesy of Kalwall

The east and west wings at the University of Wisconsin School of Business Grainger Hall in Madison are linked via a new Learning Commons. The centerpiece of the new space is a glass stairwell which utilizes fire-resistive glazed walls, doors, and framing to meet code requirements, while maximizing transparency and connection between the spaces.
