#UCSD Library in #SanDiego


The library was designed in the late 1960s by #architect #WilliamPereira to sit at the head of a canyon. William Pereira & Associates prepared a detailed report in 1969 and originally conceived of a steel-framed building, but this was changed to reinforced concrete to save on construction and maintenance costs. This change of material presented an opportunity for a more sculptural design.

#ThemeBuilding LA Airport


The appearance of the building as a single homogenous structure is a cleverly constructed illusion. The building's two crossed arches actually consist of four steel-reinforced concrete legs that extend approximately 15' above the ground, and a hollow, stucco-covered steel truss constituting the remaining lower arches and entire upper arches. To avoid changing the appearance of the structure with overt reinforcement, the Theme Building was retrofitted with a tuned mass damper to counteract earthquake movements. #WilliamPereira #architecture 1961
