By working with NVCS in the design phase, the architects were able tomeet the following goals:

1. Maintain the vernacular of the Pacific Heights neighborhood in SanFrancisco and unify hardscape building materials by utilizing a mixtureof cast stone, matching stucco work and herringbone pattern brick.(continued next page)

TECHNICAL NOTES: Specifiers should be aware that the undersides of Basic Components are unfinished. Custom hard troweling is available upon special request and a surcharge.However, hard troweling does not yield a level and true edge and is excluded from NVCSTolerances.

TECHNICAL NOTES: NVCS's proprietary casting methods ensure the highest quality cast stone but cannot prevent occasional hairline cracks in oversize Basic Components such as column shafts and spindle shapes such as Balusters.

(T-1/T-2 NOTES CONTINUED)

2. Use both cast stone piers and stuccopiers with matching cast stone pier caps.

3. Incorporate use of straight steps onspiraling staircase.

4. Create a sense of light-heartedness byspecifying that the acorns be made tolook like they were from an animatedcartoon, in contrast to the conservativetenor of the neighborhood.

This free-form pool combines seven different pool copingradii. The pool was built first and NVCS took templatesand cast the individual components, which were theninstalled by the mason. The seven size random paverpattern were field cut to adjoin the pool coping.

TECHNICAL NOTES: Specifiers should anticipate a rougher finishon the underside of Coping and the step portion of Steps &Risers. The cause of this is that the lower half of the bullnosecannot be formed as precisely during the casting process.Specifiers may specify that Coping be installed with anotherBasic Component similar in function to a riser to hide this rough area.

This detail shows the NVCS paversinstalled in a running bond patternwith a 2" bullnose and 1" tread as thetread material. This is one of themany assemblies of materials thatare used in combination to reducecost and weight.

TECHNICAL NOTES: Specifiers should be aware that theunderside of special cut-away screed Basic Components suchas the # SR-200, etc., are less finished in appearance thanstandard Basic Components, due to the fact that they arehand-formed. (See Cut-Away Screed, page 17)

This simple application of a caststone threshold adjacent toconcrete unit pavers (by other)exhibits the comprehensive flexi-bility of the NVCS IntegratedAssembly system. Our considerable experience inworking directly with GeneralContractors and Masons hastransformed difficult detailsinto easy-to-solve, off-the-shelfsolutions.

This detail illustrates the level of consistencyin theme and application that a specifier isable to achieve using the NVCS system. Aclose look reveals that the illusion of massiveblocks of limestone is carefully maintained byusing specialized Basic Components such asQuoins at the corners of the building.

This level of complexity can be achieved with areasonable amount of planning, shop drawingreview, and the final factor—a journeymanmason who is willing to review our ArchitecturalResource Catalog to familiarize himself withour Integrated Assembly system.

TECHNICAL NOTES: Radii may be adjusted in the field to meetexact radius condition. Example: 6' radius may be specified for a required 6' 3" radius. (See Field Cuts on page 17.)
