Fort Bend Veterans Memorial

The Fort Bend Veteran's Memorial is a striking monument designed for the Fort Bend parks system, featuring a 50-foot pentagonal structure that honors military veterans. The unique design of the monument includes concrete tilt-up panels with varying slopes and an unobstructed slit at the front, supported by hidden beams and moment connections for structural integrity. Constructed using tilt-up concrete, the memorial showcases the versatility of this method, with all elements cast on-site and erected in less than three days. The Fort Bend Veteran's Memorial was featured in the January 2014 issue of Tilt-Up Today.
