  • Planters & Fountains
    NICHOLS BRO.S STONEWORKS TM Nichols Bros. Stoneworks manufactures a broad range of quality sandstone containers in both traditional and contemporary designs. We are constantly adding new sizes and styles to expand our line of planters that are equally at home in large commercial settings, municipal projects, office buildings, malls, resorts and hotels, or adding a touch of elegance to a family home. All of our sandstone planters are hand made in the Northwest, using centuries old dry casting techniques combined with modern technology and ingredients to reduce efflorescence and Planters & Fountains increase strength and durability. This allows us to offer a ten-year warranty on these products, even against freeze and thaw damage. Exquisite as they are in their style and design our planters are crafted to function beautifully as well. We cast them with drainage holes and provide instructions and spacers to allow proper drainage. A new addition to our product line is saucers, made by Nichols Bros. Stoneworks in sizes to accompany most of our planters. Because we manufacture them, we blend the material and colors to match the planter’s finish. Because we have our own mold shop we are able to customize many of our pieces, often “blocking out” a mold to shorten a planter or create an adaptation for a water feature. Many of our planters have been adapted for use as fountains, and this is easily accomplished with pre-production modifications and post production sealing and curing. All of our pieces are made of reconstituted stone and are quite heavy. We are glad to offer any advise for transportation and installation.

  • DESIGN TIPS – TECHNICAL BULLETIN #52 ALLOWING for MOVEMENT of MASONRY MATERIALS [1 of 3]
    1927 CAST STONE INSTITUTE® CAS T STONE INSTITUTE ® DESIGN TIPS – TECHNICAL BULLETIN #52 ALLOWING FOR MOVEMENT OF MASONRY MATERIALS [1 of 3] Building materials may experience dimensional changes and movement due to environmental conditions, such as temperature and moisture, or movement of adjacent building elements. If this movement is restrained, cracking may result. By accounting for movement in the wall design, cracking can be controlled. Movement joints are used to control and minimize cracking. There are two types of movement joints typically used in masonry construction; control joints and expansion joints. Control joints are placed in concrete masonry walls to limit cracks due to shrinkage. Control joints are unbonded vertical separations built into a concrete masonry wall to reduce restraint and permit longitudinal movement. They are located where cracking is likely to occur due to excessive tensile stress. An expansion joint is typically used in brick masonry walls to provide means for expansion and contraction movements produced by temperature changes, loadings or other forces. Expansion joints allow for both expansion and contraction and may be vertical or horizontal. CAUSES OF MOVEMENT Temperature Changes Most building materials experience reversible movements due to temperature change. Concrete masonry movement has been shown to be linearly proportional to temperature change. The coefficient of thermal movement normally used in design is 0.0000045 in./in./°F (0.0000081 mm/mm/°C). Actual values may range from 0.0000025 to 0.0000055 in./in./°F (0.0000045 to 0.0000099 mm/mm/°C) depending mainly on the type of aggregate used in the unit according to the National Concrete Masonry Association.

Four alternatives have been considered for supplemental immobilization of the LAW, but two, baseline vitrification and a low-temperature immobilization process based on a cementitious grout called Cast Stone, are the current front runners. In addition, Cast Stone has been selected as the preferred waste form for solidification of aqueous secondary liquid effluents from the Hanford Tank Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant process condensates and LAW melter off-gas caustic scrubber effluents. Cast Stone is also being evaluated as a supplemental immobilization technology to provide the necessary LAW treatment capacity to complete the tank waste cleanup mission in a timely and cost-effective manner. The Tank Closure and Waste Management Environmental Impact Statement for the Hanford Site, Richland, Washington (TC&WM EIS) identifies technetium-99 (99Tc) and iodine-129 (129I) as radioactive tank waste components contributing the most to the environmental impacts associated with the cleanup of the Hanford Site.

  • Features and Decay of Cast Stone Elements in New York City Buildings in Comparison with Cast Stone in Milan
    12th International Congress on the Deterioration and Conservation of Stone Columbia University, New York, 2012 FEATURES AND DECAY OF CAST STONE ELEMENTS IN NEW YORK CITY BUILDINGS IN COMPARISON WITH CAST STONE IN MILAN Roberto Bugini1, Mariachiara Faliva2 and Luisa Folli3 1 CNR – ICVBC, Istituto per la Conservazione e la Valorizzazione dei Beni Culturali, via Roberto Cozzi 53, 20145 Milan (Italy) 2 Thornton Tomasetti, Inc., 51 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10010 (USA) 3 Independent Researcher, viale Calabria 18/B, Lodi (Italy) Abstract Cast stone was a new construction material introduced in the second half of the 19th century for the production of architectural elements such as sills, window frames, cornices, ornamentations, statues; technological advances allowed use of this material for complicated shapes with considerable savings in costs compared to carved natural stone. Cast stone use followed similar patterns in North America and Europe. This paper compares and contrasts production and performance of this innovative material between two countries by analyzing material samples from historic structures in New York and Milan. Samples dating to the first decades of the 20th century were analyzed using petrographic methods. Samples were described in terms of aggregate composition, aggregate grain size and binder colour. The main decay observed was surface erosion of the cementing matrix. This decay can be attributed to exposure to the elements and pollution, but can be accelerated by the type of tooling used to finish the cast stone surface. Keywords: cast stone, artificial stone, New York City, Milan 1. Introduction Since the first half of the 19th century improvements in material science studies and technologies led to many attempts at finding new and better methods of construction.
