George Bush Intercontinental

Bush Intercontinental is the second busiest airport in Texas. As part of a November 2004 renovation and upgrade project at the airport, Stromberg Architectural Products created a series of 83 bollards composed of Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC). The bollards built by Stromberg actually covered utilitarian steel-post security bollards separating pedestrian walkways from drivable areas, restricting vehicle access to security-sensitive areas of the complex and providing for pedestrian safety. These bollards, measuring 3-1/2 feet in height with a diameter of 2-1/2 feet, were designed with a buff-colored natural stone finish. By using this method, the benefits of natural stone were achieved at a fraction of the cost.
