The Calgary Stampede’s Post

💧🤔 Ever seen a 70-foot-tall water droplet?! Weighing in at 112,000 pounds, this public art called for 211 vertical steel tubes. 🤯 RJC worked hard to make the jaw-dropping piece come to life with structural engineering. Choosing a focal point for BMO Centre’s outdoor plaza wasn’t easy. 👨🎨 A local jury of seven selected this vision by artist Gerry Judah. 🏇 🤠 🙌 Named ‘The Spirit of Water,’ it pays homage to Calgary Stampede’s rich history while pushing creative barriers! When will you check it out for yourself? 🏷️ Partners: Calgary Municipal Land Corporation, The Calgary Stampede, City of Calgary, PCL Construction, Populous, S2 Architecture & Stantec 👷♀️ RJCers on the Project: Annelise Loczy, Chris Davis, Cory Getz, Geoff Kallweit, Lael Dilworth, Leo Tonaco & Mckinley Hori #calgary #yyc #structuralengineering #engineers #structuralsteel
