Components

The protective Railings, Fencing, Wall Screens, and structural supports.

The Friendship Circle was established in Pittsburghs Jewish Community in 2006. This is an organization for Children with Special Needs. They found a Building in 2014 that was perfect for their mission for these children in a neighborhood convenient for the families to commute.

They had no recreational or green-space for the Children who would attend. The Architect designed a rooftop Garden/Recreation area but needed of course to be safe and not appear like a "cage" or "over-sized Playpen." He selected Galvanized steel with a Duplex Coating that would be LEED® compliant. All new structures that are being built for this sort of industry must be LEED® certified for funding.

He felt galvanizing with an ASTM 6386 preparation and colorful paint system, would give them a safe, clean, colorful look and still be safe for the children to play and garden on a rooftop oasis in the middle of an urban neighborhood in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
