AltusGroup to highlight ARCIS ultra-thin precast concrete rainscreens at 2016 AIA Expo

May 11, 2016

AIA 2016 Expo badgeAltusGroup, a collaboration of innovation-focused, North American precasters, will showcase its latest innovations in precast, including ARCIS™ rainscreen technology, at the 2016 AIA Philadelphia Expo, May 19-21, 2016, at the Philadelphia Convention Center.

AltusGroup (Booth #4015 – shared with founding member High Concrete) will exhibit its innovative ARCIS ultra-thin prestressed panels. ARCIS technology provides a versatile, lightweight panel – typically 9-25 lbs./sq. ft. – that offers the strength and aesthetic beauty of precast concrete. Ideal for rainscreens and facades, mechanical screens, decorative applications and other decking applications, ARCIS panels use non-corrosive, high-strength, aerospace-grade stainless steel prestressing to impart strength, crack control and exceptional durability.

AltusGroup Executive Director John Carson will also deliver a presentation on “Carbon Fiber Reinforced Enclosures for Energy Efficient and Resilient Construction,” May 19 at 2 p.m. at the CE Theater A – Booth #352. The presentation will be based on AltusGroup’s extraordinary success with CarbonCast Enclosure Systems, which use carbon fiber grid wythe connectors to deliver continuous insulation and full composite action for load-bearing performance
