Composite Shapes Bring Industrial Aesthetic to Residential Complex
Porter FRP was recently hired to outfit this new development with high-profile materials possessing architectural flair with low maintenance requirements. Porter selected Strongwell’s EXTREN® 525 series not only because of its light weight, corrosion resistance, and UV performance, but also because of its natural industrial look, which fit well with the desired fascia aesthetics and structural support needs. To welcome new renters with an industrial motif, the leasing office requested an exposed subtle beam threshold. Three EXTREN® I-Beams (12″ x 6″x 1/2″) were utilized for this application.
