The Requirement
Build lightweight, pre-finished, easily-installed arch elements and keep the cost below budget.
The Challenge
Each arch is comprised of two equal-sized pieces. Each piece, each half-arch, was to be six-inches thick; five-feet wide and eight-feet long.
Graphics were preprinted on 2-mil EVPC and had to be registered perfectly.
The Solution
- LamLite engineered the arches as one piece
- In production, LamLite registered the graphics.
- Suspension points of all the arches were predetermined. This allowed for field-layout before the arches arrived.
- No field application of graphics was required.
- There are four connection points per arch. All connection points are minimally exposed.
- Each half-arch weighs less than 50 pounds.
