Ever since the dawn of civilization, man's great architectural works have inspired awe. Even today, the construction feats of ancient times continue to draw tourists the world over; the Colosseum in Rome housed the best entertainment the classical period had to offer from gladiatorial combat to full scale naval battles as it was flooded and used as an aquatic stage of war, but still provides a must visit stop for any travelers to the city. Before even Rome, the Egyptians raised pyramids as the only fitting tomb for their pharaohs, whom they believed were the embodiment of their gods, and the wonders are still under close study some 4000 years later.

Often, there are visionaries in the field stifled only by their times and the materials available to them. The Eiffel Tower is a structural masterpiece, but without advanced mathematics, and more importantly, knowledge of how to smelt iron, all of its design and inspiration count for nothing. The same could be said of many great designs and designers. The Empire State building is another such marvel that required the very best in technology for its day, and continues ...
... to stand strong to the present as one of the tallest buildings in the world and a marvelous feat of the modern age. In recent times, however, there has been little advancement in the way of our capabilities to provide such architectural masterpieces, and most present day buildings retain the same design process and materials they did decades ago.

BeneventoTellus is one of the producers on the cutting edge of architectural designs, providing concrete panels and embellishments with little of the conventional pitfalls of standard concrete and a number of improvements to boot. This end result is a product of the combination of the Benevento architectural system that provides concrete composite components that are both lightweight, compact and highly durable, and the Tellus building system that implements concrete panels of a similar composition to provide the same benefits while offering an integrated metal stud frame. This means that no furring will be required as the metal studs create a 6-8 space for electrical wiring or thick insulation. These new advances are opening up possibilities for architects to create the next generation of buildings, faster, lighter and cheaper than ever before.
