Using 8 foot by 16 foot sheets of Timberstrand, 64 arched roof panels were created for the Gilmore Skytrain Station in Burnaby, BC. Having constructed an adjustable prototype panel for testing purposes, we were able to confidently produce the remainder using a multiple component cast kingpost and fixed-length stainless steel cables. The 8,200 square foot roof was erected in 4 days.
