We chose Cambridge mesh because of the unique shape it could produce, and because the material’s scrim-like properties created a beautiful and elegant shimmer. ARIA Resort and Casino Las Vegas, Nevada Architect: Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects New Haven, Connecticut Peter Follett, Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects inspirational Perhaps it’s an ability to be open, yet closed, at once. To reflect light directly and indirectly, brilliantly and diffusely, together. To be rigid or flexible. Or, to be geometrically simplistic at a distance, yet vexingly complex up close. Perhaps, it’s all of these unique characteristics at work. Whatever the reason, what’s undeniable is woven metal fabric’s uncanny knack for inspiring creative minds. Which is precisely where Cambridge Architectural comes in: to ensure that architects and designers have the knowledge, products, systems, and support to transform visionary designs of today into lasting architectural realities of tomorrow. Welcome to Cambridge Architectural.

Cambridge mesh is art and architecture, form and function, and one of today’s most distinctive building materials. Tracy Tyler President & CEO 2 3 Any Building Type distincti ve Woven Metal Fabric Each distinct pattern of Cambridge woven metal fabric is itself a work of art, designed with a specific geometry, open area, dimension, and flexibility. Woven by skilled artisans from a multitude of combinations of highly durable, yet readily recyclable metals, including stainless, bronze, aluminum, and brass, metal fabric is an intrinsically sustainable building material. Architectural Functions The visual beauty of woven metal usually upstages the material’s critical functional offerings. These include: solar shading, acoustic transparency, ventilation, security and safety, space sculpting, and masking. 4 From parking garages and pedestrian bridges, to performing arts venues and major sports complexes, Cambridge metal fabrics are gracing structures across the country and around the world. Woven through interiors and exteriors of museums, libraries, hospitals, research centers, universities, casinos, stadiums, hotels, retail establishments, government facilities, and religious facilities, Cambridge mesh is transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary. Engineered Attachment Systems Cambridge offers a large variety of flexible and rigid mesh patterns as well as the best-engineered attachment systems in the industry. Cambridge continually develops new mesh patterns, finishes, and innovative ways to use mesh material to achieve certain architectural looks or functionalities.

F. 151 1 Part of the Cotton Bowl’s recent $57 million renovation included cosmetic upgrades to the north and south exterior facades, or end zones, of the historic stadium. A design competition for this scope of the 26' design - 3 11/16" project was held. The winning TOP MESH HEIGHT concept, entitled ‘Light Veil’, including REF E400 two Cambridge Architectural flexible mesh patterns and an engineered attachment system, came from James Carpenter Design Associates, Inc. of New York City. Katharine McClellan, Senior Designer at James Carpenter, in describing their design objective and challenges says, “Our design intent was to create an enclosure but to allow for views into and out of the stadium while allowing form to take shape. It was a very large area to cover so we had to use a material that was economical, yet able to achieve the aesthetics we were looking for, especially with respect to reaction with sunlight.” 15 TOP OF HSS 2 510' - 5 13/16" 3 86345-NW-03 13' - 4 9/16" VIF JCDA imagined the use of woven metal fabric. “We decided to do a series of ribbons that would come inward from the top of the structure, then cinch and continue to flow downward to create an elegant form. Ribbons of metal mesh would allow us to maintain 23' - 1 3/16" BOTTOM MESH the curves of the stadium itself.” HEIGHT 5 86345-NW-03 REF E400 14 E N 1W Q 1 1 -NW-0 86345 TOP OF HSS 4 536' - 0 5/16" 42 E.9 41 UA F D RA N T 1 2 -NW-0 86345 40 39 38 9' - 6 3/4" VIF 4 86345-NW-03 TOP OF HSS 487' - 6 1/2" 10 Renderings: ©2013, James Carpenter Design Associates, Inc.

APPROXIMATELY Cambridge worked closely with James 233.25" MESH LENGTH BELOW SPLICE AREA Carpenter Design Associates to explore the most appropriate metal mesh patterns and attachment hardware systems that would best achieve the firm’s vision. “We used two different scales of mesh, which became a design tool,” says McClellan. “We placed long ribbons of smaller scale stainless mesh from the top of the structure all the way down to the bottom. Then, on the upper portion of the structure, we used the larger scale stainless mesh that reflects much more sunlight. When we overlap the two, you get a sense of depth between the two patterns. And even though the larger weave is behind the smaller, as it reflects so much more sunshine, it transforms the surface into a diaphanous veil.” 12 TOP OF HSS 487' - 6 1/2" 16 14 M1 P1 M2 There’s a certain ‘aha’ moment in every project when a consultation transforms a design into a customized application. In my 14 12 years at Cambridge, I’ve watched our team create countless solutions that flawlessly execute the 8 architect’s vision. Ann Smith, Manager, Architectural Business 4 Development Cambridge Engineering Cambridge engineering professionals worked closely with Heery International, the design/build firm on the project; supplying them with working drawings for this huge mesh panel installation as well as structural attachment recommendations and load details. The final Cotton Bowl exterior renovation specification incorporated 334 Mid-Balance mesh panels measuring 28”x50’ (41,120 sq. ft.) and 174 Pellican mesh panels measuring 26”x20’ (8,232 sq. ft.). All mesh panels were mounted in-tension utilizing Cambridge’s Eclipse attachment system. Says McClellan, “The stainless mesh allowed us to create form for the end zones and to provide a sense of enclosure, while allowing views out and in, as well as air circulation and ventilation through the system.” Engineers are motivated to solve seemingly impossible puzzles. My job at Cambridge invites me to imagine every day what is possible – and create customized fabrication and installation solutions to bring ideas to life. Jim Mitchell Engineering Manager 14 8 from inspiration to installation 13 Cambridge Project Management Collaboration between Cambridge’s project managers and the contractors (NOW Specialties, Balfour Beatty Construction) began in January 2013 to effectively transition design and structural requirements through the fabrication process. Installation took place at the stadium between July and September of 2013. Cambridge Architectural facilitated a professional installation and provided on-site support to assure satisfactory project completion. The Cotton Bowl renovation was equal parts imagination, fabrication and execution. Cambridge mesh helped score a big win for this Dallas institution. Kenn Thompson, Director of Project Management Results The Cotton Bowl’s stunning and imaginative new facade, now befittingly reflects the pageantry and prestige of the games held at the historically significant sports facility. McClellan concludes, “We were able to create a very large artwork that allowed us to use the sunlight which was very important to us. Plus, it allowed to stay within budget.” Architect: James Carpenter Design Associates, Inc., New York, New York Design/Build Firm: Heery International, Atlanta, Georgia General Contractor: Balfour Beatty Construction, Dallas, Texas 14 Installer: NOW Specialties, Inc., Houston, Texas Owner: City of Dallas / Office of Cultural Affairs Public Art Program / Dallas Park and Recreation Department Mesh: Mid-Balance & Pellican Attachment System: Eclipse from inspiration to installation 15 preserving and protecting what’s priceless Project The University of Calgary’s Taylor Family Digital Library is a state-of-the-art facility housing one million maps and aerial photographs, 850,000 architectural drawings, and 32,000 print monographs. Cambridge Architectural’s 5,630 square foot Mid-Balance mesh façade shades and protects these rare documents, and the library’s occupants, while giving the innovative research and learning center a 21st Century modern aesthetic. Application & Benefits The large Mid-Balance stainless steel façade shades and reduces glare, protecting the nine million library assets while reducing solar heat gain and optimizing energy performance in regularly occupied areas of the building. Anchored with the Eclipse attachment system, the large mesh panels filter intense sun, while still allowing sufficient ambient daylight and unobstructed views to the campus quad outside of the Information Commons – a glassed-in area meant for students to learn and relax in while using the facility. The result is a comfortable and beautiful open space ideal for academic endeavors and collaboration. The stainless steel mesh and attachment materials are also 100% recyclable and require nearly zero maintenance.

Schroder Overcrossing,’ is a 500’ span routing pedestrians and cyclists on the Iron Horse Regional Trail, safely over a busy intersection. The trail is a popular byway for San Franciscans between two BART transit stations. Application & Benefits The Plait mesh pattern and design of the span were chosen to prevent people from throwing objects over the side of the bridge and to deter climbing. Plait is a rigid metal fabric with a 64% open area ratio. The Plait mesh is welded inside modified U Frames and bolted to the bridge’s framework. The Plait/U Frame stainless steel mesh system is virtually indestructible and designed to withstand the rigors of pedestrian traffic. The Robert I. Schroder Overcrossing received a 2012 IDEAS2 award for innovation in structural steel design from the American Institute of Steel Construction.

To accomplish Perkins+Will’s vision for a dramatic metal mesh entry into the magnificent Texas A&M University Memorial Student Center, Cambridge forged a revolutionary attachment system to execute the large-scale installation. Texas A&M University Memorial Student Center Application & Benefits The function was key, but the aesthetic of the mesh was what drew us to Cambridge. The refinement the system brings to the student center is exactly what we hoped to achieve. Vance Cheatham Design Principal Perkins+Will Architects Perkins+Will utilized Graph mesh throughout the project. For the building façade, Cambridge Architectural’s Rigid Mesh-in-Tension attachment system secured the mesh to the structure in two enormous side-by-side panels, each over 27 feet in height. Cambridge also blast-etched the University’s logo in the panels. The architect maintained continuity of design by incorporating the Graph mesh into the adjacent stairwell and balcony railing infill panels. The overall result is a beautiful yet functional use of metal mesh as an advanced building material element. Perkins+Will designed the Texas A&M Memorial Student Center to be fully compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act and to achieve LEED Silver standards. Architect: Perkins+Will Contractor: Vaughn Construction Installer: Orozco Construction Owner: Texas A&M University Mesh: Graph Cambridge mesh was chosen for its highquality appearance, sustainable features and fall-protection.

Commissioned by principal architect Behnisch Architekten to anchor the 7th floor lobby in the almost 200,000 square foot landmark building. The stainless steel metal space divider is one of the two applications produced by Cambridge at the $107 million Law Center. Application & Benefits Fabricated of Shade metal mesh and installed using Cambridge’s pioneering curtain attachment system, the 771 sq. ft. curtain conveys an ethereal aesthetic while providing strength. The flexible, open pattern optimizes light and ventilation. Designed also for ease of use, the mesh curtain moves smoothly and seamlessly along a concealed, ceiling mounted track. Cambridge developed a customized anchor system to secure the draped mesh to the rollers. Architect: We wanted a sustainable solution in a durable curtain application. Cambridge’s stainless steel mesh satisfied these needs while exuding the elegant nature of a fabric curtain.

Awty’s rapid growth has spurred the need for facility expansion, including most recently a new 5-story, 174,000 square foot parking facility with 440 additional spaces for faculty, staff, students and visitors. Application & Benefits Cambridge Architectural mesh was incorporated into the exterior façade design of the parking facility by the architect not only for functionality (solar shading, headlight attenuation, fall protection, ventilation) but for the way it visually enhances the appearance of this large structure both by day and by night. Awty International School Parking Facility, Houston, Texas 26 Architect: Bailey Architects, Inc., Houston, Texas Engineer: Haynes Whaley Associates, Houston, Texas Contractor: Ellipse Builders Owner: The Awty International School Mesh: Mid-Balance Attachment System: Eclipse Cambridge provided a turn-key solution by supplying the mesh and attachment components which offer a consistent, elegant look without having to bring multiple trades into the installation. Cope Bailey Vice President/Designer, Bailey Architects, Inc. Cambridge’s Mid-Balance mesh pattern and Eclipse attachment system was specified by the architect to create multiple vertical panels to cover the open areas of the garage. LED lighting was added to illuminate the mesh panels in Awty’s school color – green. 27 Flexible Mesh mesh and attachments ALLIANCE3 Material: Open Area: Weight: Max.
