University of Illinois Completes Nat'l Supercomputing Center
The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign’s new National Center for Supercomputing Applications Advanced Computation Building Addition was recently completed by Holabird & Root of Chicago. The 17,000-sf facility features a 90 x 90-ft column-free space that can accommodate continually changing arrangements of hardware. The construction of the exterior allows the room to expand incrementally without the addition of walls or columns inside the space, while operating at full capacity.
