DESIGN OF 68-FEET TALL CAST STONE ENTRY: GOTHIC ARC, CATHEDRAL WINDOW TURRET

How do you achieve grand entry that is more than five stories high with complex design details that also look seamless/monolithic in design?

The AAS team custom fabricated cast stone pieces for the for the Fertitta Hall building project at the Marshall School of Business, University of Southern California (USC). The 68-feet tall stone veneer with multi-profiled entry way trim for the vaulted gothic arc, and also cathedral window turret is built using 955 cast stone pieces (970 cubic feet, 131,000 lb. of weight).

See in this video how the cast stone panels are engineered with thoroughly integrated installation support:
