Hi, As part of my dissertation, I am looking into the more structural engineering side of skyscrapers. I was wondering if anyone could clarify the types of connections within the steel frame of the Seagram Building? I have watched lectures and read up thoroughly but still have some confusion. Thanks

Mies was fascinated with the skeleton not the glass, said once he wished he could eliminate the glass…as he said “God is in the details” and detail he did by building an exposed steel skeleton without a single bolt in sight.
