Ben Hur erected approximately 1,400 tons of structural steel for the James T. Morris Arena at Indiana University Indianapolis, a new 4,200-seat multipurpose facility.
A defining feature of the project is its high-roof structure, featuring eight 160-foot trusses. Six utilize 3-inch cable bottom chords, while the remaining two feature structural steel bottom chords.
A great team effort with our project partners to support the continued growth of the IU Indianapolis campus for students, athletes and visitors!
