News & NotesCurtainwall on Federal Building Combines Security, Aesthetics
In the spring of 2001, the government appropriated funds to provide significant upgrades to the building’s interior and exterior, including installation of a blast hazard mitigating façade. In another facility protection scheme and originally used by the U.S. Armed Forces for force and critical equipment protection in forward areas, Metalith has been modified by its maker CMI of Chicago to accommodate the increasing demand for the protection of government, military, industrial and commercial sites. The perimeter security system has received the U.S. State Department’s highest certification (K12). The Metalith is a prefabricated steel wall structure that offers blast mitigation, blast containment, force protection, anti-ram vehicle protection, cost efficiency and ease of installation.

Tenants of the Des Moines [Iowa] Federal Building will soon be enjoying a structurally sound and energy-efficient façade, thanks in part to the customized, protective curtainwall by Wausau Window and Wall Systems. Currently being installed in the fully occupied building, the system adheres to heightened security measures mandated by the federal government, while maintaining the aesthetic integrity of the architect’s design.
