Pasargad Steel Complex Gateway is located on a 3,600-square-metre site, in the southern part of Pasargad Steel Complex. It has four entrances and four exits; each of which has a separate weighbridge. The control room, security room, drivers’ room, and other related services are also located there. Due to the client’s interest in ancient Persian architecture, the concept of the project was derived from decorative motifs of some elements of Persepolis palaces, combined and repeated on a larger scale.
