SUN Precast Wins CSI Restoration Excellence Award

This restoration project encompasses several buildings on the campus of the University of Connecticut. The scope includes the complete replacement of the existing ornate Cast Stone elements including the detailed turrets, dentil cornices, surrounds, crockets, rosettes, panels, quoins, coping, medallions and bands.

The replacement Cast Stone is a perfect replication of the original structure. The intricate architectural details were replicated using sculpting techniques to enhance the original details prior to casting with rubber and fiberglass molds. Cast Stone served to maintain the historical integrity of the project and allowed for maintaining the fine architectural details of the buildings.
