Portland Art Museum in Portland, OR, uses 2,000 SF of GreenGirt Max CMH™ over metal studs, behind ACM cladding, with mineral wool insulation. It is a cultural institution serving the city’s arts community, designed by Hennebery Eddy Architects, built by Mortensen Builders, and installed by McKinstry.

On this small, 2,000 SF scope, horizontal girts carry the ACM facade across the metal-stud wall while keeping the exterior insulation continuous. The composite girts provide defined fastening points for the panels and a thermal break at each attachment, reflecting the relationship between cladding support and thermal continuity discussed in continuous insulation attachment systems.
