The client reached out to the ORIGIN team to bring to life the vision of GFRC panels and the fiberglass finial for the cupola. The goal of the project was to develop detailed drawings to be further utilized by our client in manufacturing.
The challenge:
The complexity of a structure — with the suggested layout featuring two outer cupola panels, two interior panels, and a finial. A sophisticated GFRC frame was designed to support the four large panels and the finial while adhering to the constraints of the existing superstructure, which could not be modified. Additionally, the design incorporated solutions for flashing installation.
