Why Precast?
Save Time & Money
High Quality & Strength
True Shapes & Surfaces
The use of precast concrete in construction projects offers substantial benefits—many of which derive from the manufacturing process that is used. Concrete is poured into reusable molds or forms, ensuring consistent sizes and shapes regardless of quantity. The concrete is cured by a climate-controlled process with the appropriate temperature and moisture levels to produce optimal quality and strength.
Greater Quality Control
Concrete curing is monitored by on-site personnel, further optimizing quality control. Also, our precast concrete products are protected from unpredictable weather, one of the most common reasons for construction delays. Once complete, precast concrete products are then transported to the construction site.
Faster Installation
When compared to cast-in-place—in which concrete is poured and cured at the construction site—precast concrete can be installed much more quickly and efficiently. Furthermore, with just-in-time delivery, the amount of laydown space needed can be significantly reduced. Construction schedules are also streamlined since work in the field and the precast concrete facility can be carried out simultaneously.
Custom Designs and Shapes
From a design perspective, the possibilities are virtually endless. Concrete forms can be customized for specific shapes, sizes, dimensions, textures and finishes to enhance aesthetics. Notches or grooves can be incorporated into concrete components to accommodate mechanical and utility systems that achieve a seamless appearance.
Optimal Performance
Regarding performance, precast concrete can be designed and manufactured to meet the most rigorous structural and seismic specifications as well as building code standards.
