HGTC Forestry Pavillion

This was a great project completed in Georgetown for the Horry Georgetown Technical College. The trusses are hand built on site and the steel plates are 3/4" thick. The beams were estimated to weigh 12,000 lbs and sit atop 18" concrete columns. This structure is huge, look at the 7 foot door in the top photo! There is also a 80 inch TV screen (see dark area in top photo). All of the wood was painted before installing the roof system. The architect (Derrick Mozzingo) was so pleased with the completed project that he submitted the design in a AIA competition in Las Vegas. I took the photos for Derrick to used.
