United States Supreme Court Undergoes Facelift with Help from Merritt Graphics

The requirements for this mesh-scape were demanding and needed to be precise. Working with high-resolution photos provided by a government subcontractor, Merritt created a template to reproduce the images to exact size. The images were printed on multiple panels of Top Value Fabrics 8 ounce mesh. The panels, ranging from 81- to 110-feet in length, required exact measurements due to special cutaways at the bottom of the building. As a safety measure, the panels needed special pockets at the top for easy removal in case of inclement weather, including winds over 50 miles per hour. The panels were hot-air welded, and Merritt added vertical reinforced supports to the back of the panels to minimize potential stress caused by exterior elements.
