JOB SUMMARY
A custom monumental ribbon window glazing system and standard CW250^™ copyright curtainwall system were chosen for the new speedway. Two rows of ribbon windows were used for the spectator suites. The system profile is a nominal 3 inches by 6 1/2 inches deep featuring a clear anodized finish. Each ribbon is approximately 12 1/2 feet tall and extends along the track for over 5/8-of-a-mile. This custom system's glazing is offset to the front and was set from the inside to minimize initial labor and future replacement costs. The glazing material, a special laminated glass, was carefully tested to protect the suites from the transmission of unusually loud noises generated at the racetrack. Approximately 89,000 square feet of glazed area curves around the track.

Another outstanding feature of the building are the stair towers, which are enclosed with the standard CW250^™ curtainwall system. The framing system profile is 2 1/2 inches by 6 1/4 inches for 1/4-inch glazing, and covers approximately 10,600 square feet. Face caps are painted a deep blue.
