Title

Courthouse Dome- Copper Exterior

Description

As part of the 2014 renovation, the courthouse's dome was fitted with an outer layer of copper to protect the dome from both the elements as well as lightning strikes. Copper is frequently used on domes due to its high tensile strength and malleability making it ideal for tightly pitched roofs.
