"Why Pay for High Bay"
By
Wilson
Architects
To be successful in the physical sciences, an institution needs to consider high bay space as a crucial component of its overall space portfolio. This article addresses the need for high bay, why it is so essential and why it is a good upfront investment.
In a number of recent projects for the physical sciences, we have seen the need to provide high bay space for a variety of applications. These applications include the imaging and characterization of materials at the nanoscale, the study of material properties at cryogenic temperatures, supercomputing, and the assembly of large detectors for both particle physics and astrophysics. Each of these activities is widely different scientifically, but they all share one thing in common - the need for height.
