2007 Tilt-Up Achievement Award Winner :: Warehouse/Distribution Division
Submitted by: Pattern Crete, Inc.
To achieve the look of imported granite slabs accented with slate without the high cost, the owner selected Tilt-Up for its ability to achieve the desired aesthetics, speed of construction and durability. This project combines cast-in-place decorative colored and stamped concrete with Tilt-Up construction.
Located on a tight site, the panels had to be cast in two phases. The second set of panels was poured around the bracing for the first set of panels.
Achieving a granite-like exterior, the structure is colored deep red with charcoal accents. Charcoal colored simulated slate borders running through the simulated granite slabs create additional visual appeal.
This project has been recognized by Concrete Décor magazine, Concrete Contractor magazine, the American Society of Concrete Contractors (ASCC) newsletter, and was featured as an online article on ConcreteNetwork.com.
