Contact Climbing
When the team at Contact Climbing were in the planning phase for their new facility, they explored the benefits and options of steel construction. Ultimately, a structural steel system by our team at Western Steel won over all other methods in terms of design flexibility, durability, construction time, and cost.
Co-founders Jenny and Jeff Compas partnered with Chris and Jacquelyn Horton to achieve a structural steel building that incorporates open web trusses with support columns, multiple roof lines ranging from 26’7 to 59’0, and a mezzanine N-Deck floor system. There are two different styles of climbing, a bouldering area with walls measuring 14’ to 17’ high, and a 15,000 square foot roped area with 52’ climbing walls designed by Vertical Solutions. The team at Western Steel ensured project continuity from concept to completion, working directly with Vertical Solutions to create a detailed model for their engineers to accurately design the climbing walls. Point loads were added into the system to attach the climbing walls onto the open web trusses for support.
The Sandbar
The Sandbar is home to Utah’s first indoor/outdoor beach volleyball facility. It is conveniently located in North Salt Lake, Utah. By utilizing a clear span design for the 100’x210’ footprint, it allowed more than enough space for five indoor sand volleyball courts, without any column obstructions on the courts. In addition, this recreational steel building incorporated a 2,550 square foot mezzanine that provides a comfortable place for refreshments and a viewing area for spectators. The Sandbar was able to save time and money during construction with a simple box design, accented with excellent signage on ideally placed parapet walls.
