Project Category: Thin Pre-Stressed Cladding

Hotel 1000

Seattle, Washington

Project goals

  • Addition of precast components to a curtain wall system
  • Low cost
  • Fast building enclosure and skin installation

Advanced Glazing Systems used our 1” thick panels, some as large as 4 x8,  and incorporated them into an aluminum curtain wall system.  Panel edges were built with returns to give depth to the system.  Arcis thin prestressed panels allowed the look of precast on the building without the need of two different exterior wall systems.  The panels were assembled at AGS and sent to the jobsite as a unit.
