Ramtech was approached to assist with the design, manufacture, and installation of a 2,656 s.f. Hydrogen Sulfide testing lab. The permanent modular building was placed in a tight footprint between two taller existing structures which had windows that faced the testing lab, so a site-built parapet wall extending approximately two feet above the roof line was designed to screen the view of the extensive rooftop mechanical equipment. HCF Silhouette horizontal concealed fastener steel siding was site installed on the two side walls along with masonry veneer covering the front and rear of the building. To provide the most vertical interior space possible, the building was designed with a perimeter frame with columns to eliminate the need for deep trusses in the ceiling cavity.
