Pasadena City College -
Shatford Library

Pasadena, California

This 100,000 square foot, four story library facility adds a unique space to the campus setting.  With its research areas, reading areas, and extensive stack space, this facility is expected to satisfy the College's needs for many years.

The unique shape of the facility and the interior rotunda were easily framed in structural steelwork, and founded on short drilled piles which extend through moderate density upper soils.
