Arthur Vierendeel (1852–1940) born in Leuven, Belgium was a university professor and civil engineer. The Vierendeel structure he developed was named after him.His work, Cours de stabilité des constructions (1889) was an important reference during more than half a century. His first bridge was built 1902 in Avelgen, crossing the Scheldt river

• The library features five-story Vierndeel frames
• Four concrete corner columns support the frames
• Length direction span: 131 feet• Width direction span: 80 feet
• Façades are assembled from prefab steel crosses welded together at inflection points
• The tapered crosses visualize inflection points
