Fulton Street Oculus – Complex Gutter System for Fulton Street MTA Station Oculus
Included in the new design for the Fulton Street MTA train station in Manhattan an Oculus with an elliptical roof was specified. Maloya was given the task of creating the 3D modeling necessary to address the complexity of the gutter systems as well as the exact connection details required. As each of the roof systems components were dissimilar, 3D modeling was a definite necessity before Maloya could begin fabrication. Maloya also created a detailed parts marking and skid numbering system to aid in the installation process.
