Project Size

Steel: 60 tons | HDG: 60 tons

Components

The entire structural railings, platforms, and canopies.

The MBTA of Boston has a long history of galvanizing their structural steel. The architect contacted the galvanizer as they were concerned with meeting LEED credit with using HDG. They were educated and surprised to find that instead of it being a negative on this project it would be much more than just a plus.

The MBTA office received a seminar on sustainability, and we were surprised that as much galvanized steel as they had specified over the years, they did not realize all of benefits other than just corrosion protection and economics. Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority South Acton Train Station
