We produce many precast structural components including: concrete beams, spandrels, columns, wall panels and many others.
We often use the prestressing technique to accomplish the structural requirements of the project. Prestressing is a technique of introducing stresses of a predetermined magnitude into a structural precast concrete product to improve its behavior. Prestressed precast concrete products are typically crack-free under working loads and, as a result, look better and are more watertight, providing better corrosion protection for the reinforcing steel in the precast concrete piece. The concrete bonds to the steel as it cures, and when the tension is released it is transferred to the concrete as compression by static friction. The concrete bonds to the steel as it cures, and when the tension is released it is transferred to the concrete as compression by static friction. Prestressed precast concrete provides the lowest overall cost over the lifetime of the product.
