THREE PRODUCT MATERIAL OPTIONS FOR COLUMNS AND PILASTERS:
Cast stone: The vibrant-tamp casting technique allows custom shapes with complex details, stringent tolerance requirements for seamless look and feel. Cast stone columns can be installed with anchorage to a shaft inside, or they can be column covers around other solid structural materials.
Wet-precast concrete: The wet-pour architectural precast columns are more suited for load bearing column applications. These columns can have steel rods or other reinforcements for required structural strength.
GFRC: GFRC columns are ¾” inch thick and light in weight. AAS GFRC products have very high strength to weight ratio making them ideal for higher elevation applications. GFRC column covers can be installed around other solid, structural materials as well.
AAS ADVANTAGE:
- The AAS team works closely with designers and contractors to review, confirm details at CAD drawing’s level.
- Design Assist, Construction Assist: The AAS team is able to guide customers with design of the columns and column covers. The AAS engineering, fabrication process develops built-in connections for anchorage connections, installation support.
- Thanks to custom mold making CNC technology and experience of the AAS team, designers have unparalleled freedom and flexibility to achieve columns of any size and shape.
