Hurricane Harvey Rapid Response

In late Summer of 2017, Hurricane Harvey made landfall in the Gulf of Mexico region of Texas and Louisiana. In addition to the 100+ lives lost, the Category 4 hurricane triggered unprecedented flooding that inundated hundreds of thousands of homes, commercial and government buildings in Southeast Texas and surrounding areas.

Temperature control for Yale Beineke Library

Temperature and humidity controls ensure that stored materials are protected for future generations. For the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library, it has become more difficult over the years, especially since the building was built in 1960, which means maintenance is much more difficult. Polygon was tasked with controlling the internal temperature levels without compromising the building structure.

School construction in hot summer months

While deadlines and project details may always seem tight, none seem tighter than those concerning school construction projects. Schools must follow environmental regulations during renovations and new construction to keep students and faculty safe from potential health risks. New masonry construction began at MacArthur Elementary School in New York during the summer, including the gymnasium, library, and three two-story classroom wings. With construction costs near $80,000,000, interior conditions must be maintained during construction to meet design specifications and stay on schedule.
