Historic Iowa Church Reborn with Components, SBCA Member

  • Historic All Saint’s Church in Stuart, IA burned in 1995, and was rebuilt with building components in 2008. 
  • The project team included SBCA member Lumber Specialties, who designed and built an intricate roof truss system for the main dome of the church. 
  • To properly transfer loads, the trusses tied into custom steel compression and tension rings placed in the center of the dome.
