Harvard University Klarman Hall

Boston, MA

Harvard University Klarman Hall in Boston, Massachusetts, uses 26,000 square feet of GreenGirt Max CMH™ over metal studs, behind slate and panel cladding, with mineral wool insulation, paired with the GreenGirt CMH Roof™ system on the roof assembly. This university academic and event hall at Harvard Business School is designed by William Rawn Associates, built by Walsh Brothers Construction, and installed by Central Ceilings, Inc.

A flagship university hall clad in slate sets a high standard for both appearance and durability, and slate is heavy. The GreenGirt Max CMH girts carry that weight and present the slate and panels on a continuous plane, while the composite metal hybrid sub-framing fastens the cladding without conducting heat through the steel studs the way solid-metal framing would.
