The Steel I-Beam
Since the turn of the century, this structural device has changed the way the world builds.
Today, the I-beam stands as a symbol of strength and support reflecting the mission of the UPMC Orthopaedic Department. To provide a structurally solid framework for the delivery of orthopaedic care. To allow for the continued pursuit of excellence in resident education. And the ongoing challenge of developing new treatments in orthopaedics.
The steel I-beam was created in Pittsburgh and has changed the landscape of the world. Today, it stands as our symbol of commitment to change the landscape of orthopaedic care.
