Design supply and installation of limestone by I.A.E.
1. The ICF structure used to build this english colonial style building, home of the Custom Authority at the Christophe Harbour Marina, had many details that had to be designed with the intention to accommodate the Italian limestone architectural elements.
2. Windows and doors stone surrounds were installed with a special thinset mortar into a recess of the ICF, leaving the stone with the necessary overlapping to accommodate doors, windows and bricks on the face of the wall.
3. The dimensions of the stone elements composing the balcony parapets were built with stones of large dimensions obtaining, thanks to the seamless joints, a monolithic appearance of the entire structure.
