Metal protects avian exhibit

摘要

Hatch Design Architecture designed the Idaho Power Flight Lab at the World Center for Birds of Prey in Boise, Idaho, with a variety of metal materials and components. The 761-square-foot avian exhibit for raptors has a skeletal tube steel frame with a metal mesh enclosure, and a covered section with metal roofing and wall panels. Project details include replica power poles, and a large steel case with specialty detailing to prevent injury to the birds and prevent badgers and skunks from entering the enclosure.
