Pultrusions in Buildings

Usually we think of composite structures only being found on boats. Here in Copenhagen is a composite window structure in a hotel. Probably they are pultrusions.  Horizontal one is a solid fiberglass flange.
Vertical is fiberglass box section. They are much less of a heat sink than metal framing would be. Composites go corporate!

Holiday Discount Again

Once again we are offering the wildly successful Holiday plans price discount. Matthew has had to work a bit harder at it now as robots run the shopping cart and nobody can see the card numbers. I understand it will be for all orders over $1000 and will be for 20% off as before. Party on.

Matthew here, – would have been really easy, if i had any Excel skills 😉 – it’s all set up, the discount is 20% on all full plan sets, regardless of price… when you get to the shopping cart you will see the discounted price. Runs until January 15th. Now’s your chance to start building!

Accessible Daycharter Catamaran

Got a nice little write-up on a 50′ a solar-powered hybrid, handicap accessible, daycharter catamaran that I am designing. It will operate in Florida. http://flmag.com/off-the-grid/florida-fishing-academy-add-handicap-accessible-hybrid. It will be only 49 passenger, not 75. Foam-glass construction.

Drawings posted soon. This project is why this blog and all my other work got neglected for a while. Deadline was today.

Double Curved Glass

Sarabi had double curved tempered safety glass put on her front windows. They are beautiful and strong. Not everybody can find it though. I got a call from a group from New Zealand expanding in the US. Not sure of price but…www.durashieldmarine.com  and
