Missouri S&T Protoplex Research Facility | New Millennium
The Missouri S&T Protoplex Research Facility in Rolla, Missouri, brings industry and academia together to advance manufacturing innovation and prepare the next generation of manufacturing leaders. For this project, New Millennium supplied steel joists and deck, including Versa-Dek® LS ES Acoustical and Versa-Dek® LS ES Composite Acoustical architectural steel deck. The open-span capabilities of Versa-Dek® helped support the facility's expansive manufacturing environment, while the acoustical deck was selected to help mitigate ambient noise from high-intensity manufacturing equipment—all while providing a clean, exposed-ceiling aesthetic. The Missouri S&T Protoplex demonstrates how structural steel solutions can help create flexible, high-performance spaces designed for both innovation and education.
