3.51亿美元的迦南dian Museum for Human Rights,with nearly indescribable shapes nicknamed Mountain (main building), Cloud (entrance facade glazing), Tower of Hope (spire) and Roots (splayed legs), had all the usual challenges of asymmetrical and nonrepetitive architecture. To overcome them, the team relied heavily on shared 3D reference models that provided x,y,z coordinates to help locate the giant puzzle pieces.
"The building's irregular and nonrepetitive shape did not allow for the use of typical, repetitive construction techniques," said one judge. "As a result, very detailed coordination and meticulous planning had to be implemented at every step." Another said, "Wonderful basis of design, stunning execution."
驯服野生建筑（尤其是在许多分包商中都没有这种类型的项目，并且不熟悉构建信息建模的经验）是工作中最困难的方面。但是，位于曼尼托巴省温尼伯的加拿大政府项目最新的方面并不是关于不规则形式的。相反，这与博物馆的引人入胜的主题有关：人权。
客户希望保证所有承包商都将在材料的采购中进行尽职调查，以确保遵守人类和劳动力原则。博物馆对与供应商竞标相关的人权问题的调查，重点是确保当前的供应商公司与人权原则保持一致的供应商实践。
为了从内蒙古的玄武岩采购，PCL对采矿实践进行了特殊的现场检查。对于用来覆盖一些坡道的雪花石膏石，该团队的成员参观了西班牙的矿山和制造设施，以确保它符合PCL和博物馆的标准，以供工人质量，安全和道德待遇。建筑经理说，在进行了公平且公平的招标过程之后，PCL选择了加拿大的Thyssenkrupp电梯提供五个由安大略省Pickering制造的电梯。
The local trades were not familiar with virtual design and construction tools. The building team leaders helped the less experienced contractors develop their own in-house VDC capabilities by holding general meetings during the bidding process. Following the award of the major subcontracts, PCL and Smith Carter worked closely with the subtrades to help with their model-development capabilities. The local mechanical and electrical contractors currently use VDC tools on all major jobs, says PCL.
该项目成功的一个关键组成部分是通过为各方选择的主平台进行交流而花费的努力。PCL说，典型的建筑展览需要10到14年才能完成。这花了八年。PCL将较短的时间范围归因于通过在加拿大，美国和德国的八个城市的40家公司中使用VDC工具的使用，从而使仔细管理成为可能。
该建筑提到了树根，雪和冰的效果以及云的发挥，受到了大自然和草原景观的启发。Antoine Predock's intention was to elicit specific emotional responses from the visitors' "journey to enlightenment." The building team got the architect's message. They looked at the job as a journey to create a piece of inspirational sculpture, not merely a building.
