Hey, welcome back Marcatio. You have been gone for a while. I, for one miss your informative posts. Maybe you have some insight on the concrete being used here. I was under the impression that two different types are being used. A standard high psi concrete for the columns and floors, and another white concrete for the facing. I was wondering, if two different types are being used, how well do they bond together? And with heat/cold expansion and contraction of the concrete over years, would this not lead to cracks in a two concrete form? I could be totally wrong, as I have zero construction experience so be gentle haha.
