CAST CONNEX standardized connectors are available in a range of sizes to fit standard member profiles. These pre-engineered products are affordable enough to be used repetitively or as a one-off. Each connector is designed to simplify fabrication labor, especially in architecturally exposed applications.

Wheaton Library and Recreation Center, located in Silver Spring, Maryland, is a bright and welcoming multi-purpose facility offering an assortment of programs and activities for community members of all ages.

One of the project's most distinguishable exterior features is its large multi-level awnings, which add artistic significance while working to shield direct sunlight. Each canopy is supported with CAST CONNEX Architectural Tapers + Universal Pin Connectors (ART + UPC) in varying sizes, lending an elegant shape to round HSS columns and contributing to the distinctive look of the building.
