Dulles International Airport


First attempt at modeling Eero Saaranin's roof to Dulles International Airport at 1:92 scale. The wires on which the roof "hangs" can be seen above embedded in the plaster. Below is an image of all the formwork needed to pour a curved plaster slab only 3/16" thick. Our main problems are getting all the air bubbles out of the formwork before the plaster sets and resisting the pressure of the heavy wet plaster on our formwork (hence all the bracing)
