Description.
STOA Architects designed the Port of Houston Authority Bayport Terminal Inbound Canopy Expansion to optimize port operations with a durable, high-capacity structure that provides efficient shelter and improved flow for freight transport and inspection activities.
For this canopy expansion, STOA Architects was again hired by Klotz Associates to perform the Architectural and Structural design work. In Phase 1 of this Inbound Canopy, STOA had designed a layout that would allow for future expansion. The piers were installed in Phase 1 and capped for the expansion. This pre-planning saved a lot of time in design/ construction. Also, the end-caps of the original Inbound Canopy were designed for easy dismounting and re-use at the expansion end. Consultants for this project included Jaymark Engineering (Structural) and Shrader Engineering (Electrical).
