OPENINGS is an interactive storefront installation, built into the façade of the Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions (LACE) gallery in Hollywood. Located at a border condition between the urban context of Hollywood Blvd. and the art gallery environment of LACE, OPENINGS uses architectural strategies and interactive media to address these two seemingly disparate zones.

Sanatorium Zonnestraal, Hilversum NL, 1926-1931, architects Duiker, Wiebenga & Bijvoet - the architects/structural engineers designed the Sanatorium Zonnestraal near Hilversum in The Netherlands, completed in 1928. This cutting-edge design changed the way the world considered hospitals, by discarding the dark, unsanitary buildings of the past. Early twentieth century designs emphasized air circulation and access to sunlight. This innovation was so successful that many upscale homes placed sleeping quarters outside on balconies. The composition of glass, concrete, and steel in this structure continues to be copied in many modern homes. Three main buildings of three parallel wings contain treatment facilities and staff quarters. The infirmary houses 28 patients, specifically tuberculosis patients. Spatial relationships are clear and direct. The white concrete is brilliantly subservient to the airy and light atmosphere. There is no telling how much this project improved the quality of life for sick and mentally ill people all over the world. It is a triumph of Modernism. A major restauration took place from 2001. The main building is totally restored. From the remaining original pavilion the structure and facades have been restored. The interior is waiting for a new user.
Dortechs Structural Silicone Glazed Curtain Wall systems can be used to create almost perfectly flush-fitted glass facades. The appearance of structural glazing is achieved by using profiles that are only visible on the room side. From the outside, only the glazing and the slender shadow joints are visible. The gap between each piece of glass is approximately 25mm (this can vary) in comparison to the 50 – 60mm site line prevalent with traditional, visible grid curtain wall systems.There are two main types of SSG system Dortech offers;
The first is based upon specialist double glazed units which are manufactured to include an SSG spacer bar which incorporates a ‘U’ channel. Typically the spacer bar will have a bronze anodised finish. Structural silicone is used to bond each piece of glass to the spacerbar. Once the curtain wall grid has been erected on site, these specialist glass units are delivered to site and locked into the grid using metal toggles which are designed specifically for each respective aluminium suppliers curtain wall system. Finally a compatible silicone is applied over the top of the vertical and horizontal joints to create a flush finish.
The second utilises traditional double glazed units manufactured with structural silicone. Aluminium carrier frames are then bonded around the perimeter of each piece of glass with structural silicone. On site, the perimeter frame is locked into the curtain wall grid and then silicone is applied over the gap between each piece of glass.
Please note, the SSG Curtain wall sysems cannot accomodate significant structural movements.
Dortech has carried out a number of projects utilising the following SSG Curtain wall systems:
Schuco FW50+SG
Schuco FW60+SG
Technal MX+SG

Dinosaur tracks in the Cretaceous of Colorado, USA.
Dinosaur Ridge is a section of Colorado's Dakota Hogback, a north-south trending ridge of eastward-dipping, Mesozoic sedimentary rocks. Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous rocks are present, tilted during the Laramide Orogeny in the Cenozoic.
This exposure consists of structurally tilted beds of the Dakota Sandstone, a Lower Cretaceous succession of nearshore terrestrial to intertidal to shallow marine quartz sandstone deposits. The eastern side of Dinosaur Ridge has a spectacular sandstone bedding plane with hundreds of dinosaur footprints. Researchers have identified 325 dinosaur footprint at the site, made by about 37 individual dinosaurs. The sediments probably represent a tidal flat that bordered the ancient Western Interior Seaway. The track makers were principally iguanodontid dinosaurs and a small theropod dinosaur. The tracks have been stained gray with charcoal to make them easier to see - the charcoal doesn't harm the tracks. Freeze-thaw weathering is destroying the tracks, and a building over this outcrop has been proposed.
This dinosaur tracksite is next to a modern freeway - Interstate 470. As such, the dinosaur tracksite is often called the "Cretaceous 470" or "Dinosaur Freeway". This is part of a series of dinosaur tracksites that occur from Wyoming to New Mexico along the western edge of the Western Interior Seaway and the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains - this is the "Dinosaur Freeway Megatracksite".
Dinosaur tracks were discovered here in 1937 during road construction, but they were found a little downhill from here. This particular bedding plane was exposed in the 1950s and 1960s. Easy access resulted in theft of some dinosaur tracks and some museum extraction (Denver Museum of Natural History). One stolen track was recovered by a Colorado State University student who found it being used as a residential doorstop - it's now at the Dinosaur Ridge visitor center. The area became "protected" in 1989.
The most common track type here is Caririchnium leonardii, which was made by iguanodontid (ornithopod) dinosaurs. The pes (hindfoot) track is tridactyl - 3 toes - and no heel (all dinosaurs walked on their toes). Pes impressions range from about 9 to 20 centimeters wide. The manus (forefoot) tracks are small in comparison. The iguanodontid tracks are mostly adult footprints, but some juvenile tracks are present.
Another track type at the site is Magnoavipes, which was probably made by a theropod or ornithopod dinosaur. Some unidentified tracks are present at the top of the outcrop. Other fossils in the area include crocodilian tracks, plants (seed pod and tree molds - with possible Teredolites borings), bivalves, and invertebrate trace fossils (Zoophycos, Arenicolites, Diplocraterion, vertical burrows, etc.).
Stratigraphy: Dakota Sandstone, Albian Stage, upper Lower Cretaceous
Locality: eastern side of Dinosaur Ridge, between Interstate 70 and the town of Morrison, west of Denver, north-central Colorado, USA
