STEEL STREETCAR

SHELTER

Inspired by nature and new technology.This streetcar shelter employs Spraytek99

solar panels designed by the Canadian company QSOLAR to provide energy to lights on the shelter. These are

lightweight semi-transparent solar panels with enough strength to take the place of structural roofing. These panels are supported by purlins made of2”x2” square

steel structural tubing. Supporting the purlins are three 5” diameter steel pipes that sit atop two columns of 6” diameter steel pipe. The entire structure is designed to

resemble a coniferous tree.
