中庭。环境建筑师的形象礼貌

为了反映学校的研究领域，这座建筑被设计成一个工程展示厅，有一个裸露的混凝土结构框架和钢桁架系统、桥梁、一个玻璃屋顶、一个大跨度遮阳系统和一个中心螺旋形楼梯。

In reflection of the school’s area of study, the building has been designed as a showcase for engineering, with an exposed concrete structural frame and steel truss systems, bridges, a glass roof, large-span sun shading systems and a centerpiece spiral staircase.

教育计划已分为两个石灰石包层塔，包括实验室，办公室和工作空间，为不同的工程部门。机翼由一个三层高的公共中庭连接，上面有一个折叠的玻璃和钢制的透明屋顶结构，它也成为5层室外空间的基础，通过悬挂在两座塔之间的屏幕遮挡太阳。玻璃和钢桥连接建筑的上层沿着东面和西面。

The educational program has been divided into two limestone-clad towers containing labs, offices and work spaces for the different engineering departments. The wings are connected by a triple-height public atrium capped with a folded glass and steel clear-span roof structure that also becomes the base of a 5-story outdoor volume, shielded from the sun by a screen hung between the two towers. Glass and steel bridges connect the building’s upper levels along the eastern and western facades.

中庭前面是国家仪器学生项目中心，该中心为本科生提供23，000平方英尺(2，100平方米)的制造空间，在早期教育中非常重视设计、制造和快速原型制作。两层工程中心的大部分实验室空间都采用了从地板到天花板的玻璃窗，让任何经过大楼的人都可以看到学生的作品。

Fronting the atrium is the National Instruments Student Project Center, which provides 23,000 square feet (2,100 square meters) of maker space to undergraduate students, putting a strong emphasis on design, fabrication and rapid-prototyping early in their educations. The majority of lab spaces in the two-story Project Center feature floor-to-ceiling glazing, putting student work on display for anyone passing through the building.
