If I go back to the floor plan here, you'll notice that there's steel columns within the space for the gravity loads and we found that it was even economical to put columns at the perimeter of the space to pick up those gravity loads but the panels take care of all the lateral loads, the wind and whatnot. Each of these panels are three stories tall, so there's two panels stacked on top of each other to give you the full six stories.
