LEGO Model of Detroit's Fisher Building (version 3, WIP)
This view shows the uncompleted roof of the Fisher Building parking garage. This roof is constructed of LEGO Technic bricks and various plates. The junctions of the technic bricks are covered by 6x6 or larger plates top and bottom with regular red bricks in between to ensure that all 36 studs are gripped. This construction method allows the roof to span 74 studs in the shorter direction with a relatively low profile of 2 bricks high total thickness including the final top surface (not shown here).
The parking garage in the real building was originally designed to hold 1,100 cars.
