Concrete masonry unit's ease of integration with complex cast in place concrete elements made it the best fit for this project. Large spans and complex architectural elements were handled with a combination of CMU masonry and concrete. The ability to maintain continuity of reinforcing, and transfer large loads through the masonry from concrete elements made this projects' challenging design elements possible.
