It's actually a high performance coating, which means there's three or four layers of material that are applied to the finishes of steel, this is just steel, just red steel, applied to the finishes of this to make it really watertight and rust resistant, primary goal of which being to have it weather with very little maintenance needed over the seasons, it's a school, there's lots of maintenance, they have lots of other priorities to maintain more critical areas of the building, so we don't want them to worry about this, hopefully, really minimalist canopy. So what makes this spec so interesting is that it's not a typical spec that would see or that you would use in a lot of applications. Most high performance coatings that you would use aren't necessarily in reference to steel when we're making a building.
