Multi-use complex. Multi-tiered roofs. Multi-functionality.
Building for varied purposes, as in the case of this mixed-use lifestyle
center, requires a resilient and adaptable product. PAC-CLAD metal roof
panels, available in a variety of profi les including Petersen Snap-Clad,
Snap-On and Flush Panels were used on the project as well as fl at stock.
More architects than ever are using our Insulated Metal Panels.
The result is an
inspiring combination of strength, beauty and eficiency. Metl-Span IMPs feature
a urethane foam core with high R-values encased by attractively inished,
low-maintenance metal skins. A versatile system that enables you to both lower
the carbon footprint of your project and raise your proile as a designer. To specify

With retail, restaurants and offi ces all sharing space, PAC-CLAD was the
crowning achievement on the complex. It provided multiple options for roof,
awnings and canopies, (many of which also feature misters and ceiling

Spring into Action
The snow has inally melted and spring is in the air.
The days are longer, birds are chirp-
ing, and people are emerging from hiding after the long and cold winter. As spring warms up, I
know I will be getting out a lot more often and exploring all that living in a big city has to offer.
I will also be doing some traveling to other cities, including New Orleans for the AIA 2011
National Convention and Design Exposition on May 12-14 at the Ernest N. Morial Convention
Center. Drop me a note if you’re going to be there; I would love to meet up. Before heading to
New Orleans, be sure to check out our preview starting on page 34. Learn more about this year’s
convention, including recommended educational programs that will be of interest to the metal
architecture community and highlights of things to discover and explore while in New Orleans.
This month we focus on expanded and perforated metals. In “Choosing the Right Metal for
your Design,” on page 20, Bob Farber, president of the Milwaukee-based Industrial Perforators
Association looks at the differences between expanded metal, perforated metal and wire cloth.
Additionally, Expanded Metal Manufacturers Association member Rick Bahner with Expanded
Solutions LLC, Oklahoma City, discusses some of the many uses of expanded metals in “The
Versatility of Expanded Metal” on page 22. Starting on page 24, we highlight several projects that
feature expanded and perforated metals.
New this month is Ted’s Corner, a monthly column designed to showcase speciic aspects
of using Metal Composite Material panels, written by Ted Miller, president of The Miller-Clapper-
ton Partnership Inc., Austell, Ga. Turn to page 16 to check it out, and see also the Market Report,
featuring the a backlog report, as reported by the Associated Builders and Contractors.
There are a lot of very exciting things going on at Metal Architecture. In June, we celebrate
our 25th Anniversary, so be sure to keep an eye out for that very special edition. Additionally, the
deadline for submissions for Metal Architecture’s 2011 Design Awards is May 6. Winners will be
published in the July issue. Go to
www.metalarchitecture.com/contests.aspx
to download the
contest entry form.
