Shrine of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá: Concrete structure of the Shrine is now complete

After tireless and meticulous effort, a much-anticipated milestone has been reached-the construction team has completed the pouring of the concrete for the trellis of the Shrine of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá. This marks not only the end of one of the project’s most technically challenging aspects but also the culmination of work on the Shrine’s concrete structure.
The team had initially planned to pour all the concrete for the trellis-the intricate roof structure that now spans the central plaza and edifice-all at once. However, in mid-August, they decided to first pour the high-quality white concrete into the north and south soffit areas.
The white architectural concrete, with its textured surface, is chosen for its visibility from the plaza, while the grey concrete remains unseen.
On the evening of Sunday, August 27, the team initiated the pouring of the grey concrete, a task that continued for 19 hours non-stop. Throughout the night and into the following day, it was necessary to ensure a constant stream of concrete during that period to achieve a monolithic structure with no joints.
