QUALITY HOLE PRODUCTS CASE STUDIES
McNICHOLS case study:

© Ron Wooldridge
tampa museum of art

CUSTOMER VISION:
The architect's vision for the exterior metal skin for the Tampa Museum of Art was
to apply a material with reflective and patterned qualities that would capture the
movement of the sky, clouds and rippling waters of the adjacent Hillsborough River.
HOLE SOLUTION:
McNICHOLS® Perforated Aluminum Panels were applied as a double-layered
Tampa Museum of Art
facade around the upper exterior levels of the museum. They were purposefully
installed slightly offset from one another to create a moire pattern that simulates
motion. To add further artistry, a special LED lighting system was installed between
the layers creating a phenomenal mural for displaying electronic light shows at night.
The project called for over 3,798 panels McNICHOLS®
of varying sizes with three-inch diameter Quality Hole Products used:
holes configured in a straight row pattern, Perforated
one inch apart. The low maintenance,
corrosion-free panels were anodized with
a clear coating for a satin-polished effect.
For continuity, the perforated panels were
3,798 Perforated Panels were used on the exterior also used inside to clad many walls of the page 4
museum.
McNICHOLS case study:

chandler city hall
CUSTOMER VISION:
The architects of Chandler City Hall in Chandler City, Arizona, wanted to create a
graphical element that would replicate the forms of nature and also provide shade
and reduce solar heat gain for the building.
HOLE SOLUTION:
The artist, Ned Kahn, used McNICHOLS® Perforated Metal to create
Chandler City Hall in Chandler, Arizona “Turbulent Shade,” a wall of 6-by-12-inch stainless steel panels designed to swing
with the desert wind gusts, provide shade during the day, reduce solar heat gain
during hot summer afternoons, and make a statement about the community’s
commitment to sustainability.
The 18-gauge panels have a 1/16- McNICHOLS®
inch round hole that is 1/8-inch center Quality Hole Products used:
staggered, creating 23% light diffusion. Perforated
Attached to a stainless steel bar by two
metal cylinder arms that float in a grommet,
each perforated metal panel glides in the
grommet ring, sitting about 30 inches from
the building's glass curtain wall system. page 4
2,500 perforated panels hang on the building's facade
Please be sure to specify McNICHOLS on your next project. Thank you!

Guidelines for Minimum Hole Size/Minimum Bar Width

The rule of thumb for perforating is that the hole diameter should not be less than the thickness of the
material. The closer to a one-to-one ratio, the higher the probability of tool failure and the greater the
precautions necessary to avoid it.
Modifications can be made in certain instances at additional costs. For stainless steel and similar
higher strength materials, it is preferable to specify at least three thickness gauges thinner than the
hole diameter.
The same general rule applies to bar width. The bar width should be greater than material thickness
inches
1
inches
1
because of the increased number of punches and, therefore, increased perforation tonnage. The bar
width can be adjusted at increased costs.

EXPANDED GRATING & CATWALK WEB CODE: GEG1
Expanded Grating or Expanded Catwalk is an economical solution for

ramps, flooring, catwalks, platforms, walkways, treads or other types
of lightweight structural applications. Standard Expanded Grating is
similar to regular Expanded Metal only considerably heavier and load
bearing. Expanded Metal Catwalk Grating is structurally stronger than
GRATING CATWALK Standard Expanded Grating because the long way of the diamond
runs across a shorter span.

WELDED BAR GRATING

Welded Bar Grating is a suitable flooring application choice because of its strength, safety and overall value. Welded bar grating has a rectangular-shaped
bearing bar that is available in a variety of bar thicknesses, heights, spacings and materials.
GW, SGW SERIES WEB CODE: GBW1

GW Series Grating will handle most moderate loads and
light wheel traffic with its standard bearing bar centers of
1-3/16".
SGW Series Grating will handle heavier loads than the GW Welded
Series. Stair Treads

LOCKED BY SWAGING BAR GRATING
Locked by Swaging Grating is manufactured using an exclusive swaging (or pinching) and forming process that prevents the cross bars from turning or twisting.
Panels are available in rectangular-bar, flush top, I-bar and T-bar styles in a variety of bar heights, offered in aluminum only.
GAL, SFT SERIES Web code: GBL1

GAL Series is an economical solution for applications
requiring high strength and rigidity. GAL Series is
lightweight and corrosion-resistant.
SFT Series has cross bars flush with the bearing Aluminum
bars along the top and is the product of choice where Stair Treads

PRESS-LOCKED/CLOSE MESH BAR GRATING
Press-Locked Grating cross bars and bearing bars are notched and pressed together through a high pressure manufacturing process. The result is a
bidirectional flush surface that assures a firm, rigid connection and makes it aesthetically appealing for architectural applications.
GAA & GCM SERIES Web code: GBL1
Press-Locked GAA Series grating is formed by pressing the cross bars into the bearing bars flush top
under tremendous pressure, laterally displacing 1/16" of cross bar material into the dovetail slot.
GCM Series is formed by pressing the cross bars and bearing bars together through a high pressure
process. The GCM Series has bearing bars that are 7/16" apart offering ADA compliance.
