Superstructure of Theme Building of New York World's Fair
There are discussed in this paper the unusual engineering problems involved in the design and construction of the Theme Center of the 1939 New York World's Fair. The points of special interest are the spherical steel framework of the Perisphere, the triangular steel tower of the Trylon, and the determination of the wind loads to which these two structures may be subjected.
