SFU – uhpc complexity

And we have yet another update for SFU. The complexity of this project can not be understated. The Szolyd team is pushing the boundaries when considering the complicated texture, cantilevered form, and sophisicated geometry of these pieces. Four of the six modular components have been cast, here is a fun little time lapse video of the team taking apart the molds for the first time.
