It was with great pride that Timber Restoration
worked on the restoration of this renowned national landmark. A
full scale dome was built in our shop in Saddle River, NJ in order
to verify the specifications before performing such work 135 feet
in the air. Thanks to the prototype, the actual installation progressed
from start to finish without changes or delays. All wood material
including the laminated wood ribs and purlins were treated wtih
CCA.40. The plywood, also treated, was applied in a compound curve
fashion by a team of Timber Restoration repair technicians. All
purlin hangers, plates and hardware were stainless steel as were
the 40,000 screws used to secure the plywood.
