Mall of Africa central skylight

摘要

The design and installation of the central free-form and ETFE skylight at the Mall of Africa development offered unique challenges on both the design and installation fronts. To meet these challenges a number of custom-engineering and site-based solutions needed were developed and implemented. The material used for this project was accurately fabricated and installed to stringent tolerance requirements. The success of this project (which was completed on budget and within the allowable timeframe) can be accredited to excellent teamwork, the thorough upfront iterative design process between Novum and the other professional teams, as well as the expertise and dedication of the site installation teams.
