A recently completed addition to the St. Louis Science Center uses 20,000 sf of Citadel Envelope Rout & Return System metal composite material panels. The 13,000-sf metal-clad addition replaces an air-supported exhibit dome, making the building a permanent home for traveling exhibitions and major displays. Kuenz Heating & Sheet Metal, St. Charles, Mo., installed the panels. “The job was fairly straightforward,” said project manager Ron Bradley. “We did all of the field measurements and supplied a fab sheet for each panel to the fabricator. The job really turned out nicely.”
