Iowa Western Community College Performing Arts Center, Council Bluffs, Iowa The addition to the Iowa Western Community College Performing Arts Center was 12 years in the making as the addition was planned with the original facility, but took a number of years before the plan was brought to fruition. The prominent two-story addition is highlight-
ed by more than 5,200 square feet of Dri-Design’s 14-gauge Weathering Steel wall panels. The mate- rial palette for the original building included cast- in-place concrete, glass, limestone and galvanized roof decking that was painted. “Had the addition come sooner or been smaller, we probably would have gone with those same exterior materials,” according to David Lempke, design principal with HDR Inc. “But one of the tenets of our design philosophy is that buildings should be ‘of our time.’ Something that has been intriguing for the past decade is the use of weathered steel. It has clearly become more commonplace in projects.” The 11,000-square-foot addition primarily pro-
vides classrooms for the Center’s educational com- ponent. As the college grew and developed, weath- ered steel had been used on a main entry sign, as well as a clock tower and several bridges that cross a creek running through the campus. “We picked up on that existing material that was in the bones of the campus,” Lempke says. “The Dri-Design panels provided a great benefi t because we could select a thicker gauge of steel. The 14-gauge panels were pretty hefty and substantial yet still able to be bent.” The Dri-Design panels were installed by SGH. HDR has designed with Dri-Design before but
this was the fi rm’s fi rst use of weathered steel. “The advantage of Dri-Design is that it offers a sys- tem that’s already engineered and works with very minor tweaking,” according to Lempke. “That’s not always true of other weathered steel products.”
