The Challenge
To provide a robust and visually pleasing finished masonry product suitable for use within the grounds of a 5 Star Hotel.
The characteristics for the product must;
Be aesthetically pleasing
Be adaptable to the architects vision for terraces and canopies connecting the buildings
Suitable for both residential and communal units
Provide a product which performs in an A-rated build
The Solution
Roadstone provided 1,200m2 of Forticrete Masonry (charcoal) for both Residential and Communal aspects of the development. The product was installed by a contractor in a random bond using a charcoal pigmented mortar supplied and mixed by the contractor.
A distinct benefit of Forticrete Masonry is that it was built by a standard block-layer, removing the need for a stone mason.
The Result
Installation of Roadstone’s Charcoal Forticrete Masonry resulted in a visually appealing product that fitted well within the existing aesthetics.
