Pushing accelerator magnets beyond 10 T holds a promise of future upgrades to machines like the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. Nb3Sn conductor is at the present time the only practical superconductor capable of generating fields beyond 10 T. In support of the LHC Phase-II upgrade, the US LHC Accelerator Research Program (LARP) is developing a large bore (120mm) IR quadrupole (HQ) capable of reaching 15 T at its conductor peak field. The 1 m long two-layer coil, based on the design of the LARP TQ quadrupole series that achieved 230 T/m in a 90 mm bore, will demonstrate additional features such as alignment and accelerator field quality while exploring the magnet performance limits in terms of gradient, forces and stresses. In this paper we summarize the design and report on the magnet construction progress.
