The gates get their shear strength from perforated steel sheets welded to the frame. Special care was taken prevent galvanic corrosion between the dissimilar metals. The gates are coated with a special ceramic nano clear coat. Due to the design complexity, full size templates were created from CAD models. Fabrication was done by Diane Stendahl and Cody Munier of Damolasi.com
