Cloud Gate [SEP] Construction and maintenance
This wall, along with the rest of the garage's foundation, required additional bracing before the piece was erected. "Cloud Gate" is further buttressed by lateral members underneath the plaza that are anchored to the sculpture's interior structure by tie rods. Inside "Cloud Gate"'s polished exterior shell are several steel structures that keep the sculpture standing. The first structural pieces, two type 304 stainless steel rings, were put into place in February 2004. As construction continued, crisscrossing pipe trusses were assembled between the two rings. The trusses and supporting structures were only present for the construction phases. The finished sculpture has no inner bracing.
