“Topping out” — a tradition dating back to 700 A.D. — marks the completion of the structural frame of a new building, during which the uppermost steel beam is set in place. An evergreen tree is often placed on top of the beam, representing good luck for the duration of the project.

NC State celebrated the completion of the Integrative Sciences Building’s structural frame with a topping out ceremony on May 22. Learn more about the building’s progress through the link in our bio.
