Reinforcing Concrete Design in Architecture / Summer 96 - Page 3

 

 


To create the pattern over entries and at roof cornices, 2 x 4's were used.

CORNICE DESIGN
The design team integrated a large cornice to achieve the mathematics of classical proportioning in this structure. This was accomplished with upturned beams cantilevered 5'- 0" from the building. The patterning of the cornice with insert strips also helped hide form lines. Rather than duplicating the expensive limestone details of the original Georgian structures, exposed concrete was used to create a similar effect at the lowest cost.
