Project Details: A new parking structure at Arizona State University exemplifies the aesthetics and practicality of Cambridge’s diverse product line.

The project features a Cambridge Ventilation mesh system, which allows daylight and fresh air to pass through, reducing the need for costly HVAC and exhaust systems.

Cambridge’s Balance and Stripe metal fabric patterns, mounted with specially engineered Scroll, Eclipse and J-Hook attachment hardware creates the Cambridge Ventilation mesh system.

The metal fabric used in this project also meets fall protection requirements and, when used with crash barriers, eliminates the added cost of handrails. The attachment hardware, invisible from outside the structure, was designed to keep an aesthetic focus on the metal fabric and requires far fewer structurally embedded supports than its heavier, panelized alternatives.
