Tech.Ridge Three.1
This project has notched vertical fin panels that are used to structurally support entry canopies and break up storefront glazing. There is a unique application of panels, and throughout the project differing entry heights are used to add variance to the tall building, which is over 42 feet high. Adding visual interest to the structure, there are unique patterns in the louvered canopies over storefront entries that, when the sun passes over, create shadow patterns.

About the Tilt-Up Concrete Association
Founded in 1986, the Tilt-Up Concrete Association (TCA) strives to improve the quality and acceptance of site-cast Tilt-Up construction - one of the fastest growing industries in the United States, combining the advantages of reasonable cost with low maintenance, durability, speed of construction and minimal capital investment. Over 10,000 buildings, enclosing more than 650 million square feet, are constructed each year using this construction method.
