If your project involves concrete construction, whether that is with a wall that borders a community, fences, hiding unsightly containers, signage, Hardscape, retaining walls, the list goes on and on.
Why Use Precast Concrete?
Precast concrete will save you money
How, you ask? Precast concrete uses mold and forms, which can be used hundreds of times. Compared to the traditional building of new molds for each project and on-site pouring. In fact, a recent research project, which compared on-site pouring and precast concrete, found a cost savings 23 percent with precast concrete. The research also confirmed that precast concrete is preferred by contractors over on-site pouring because the life cycle cost is far more favorable.
Appearance
Precast concrete comes in a variety of styles and colors to fit your unique needs. They also mimic the appearance of masonry stone without the high price. They won’t need to be painted, refinished, or degrade over the years.
Ease of Installation
Transportation costs are significantly cut with precast concrete. Since precast concrete is manufactured in a controlled environment they are cured in the perfect conditions. Creating a high quality product. The panels are delivered to the installation site ready to install. They don’t require heavy equipment or lots of people to install. Which means installation is quick and easy. The landscape won’t even be disturbed.
Strength
Precast concrete is known for its strength. Which is why they make so many bridges and building from this material. Such as the Sydney Opera House, Singapore Garden in the air, and Buri Khalifa. It is defiantly able to withstand up to Central Florida’s heavy winds, rain, and fire.
While cost is usually a main consideration, others include how much maintenance the material will need, how long it will last and uphold in the Florida hot environment, and the overall aesthetics.
Quality is another factor to take into consideration. Because precast concrete is produced in a climate controlled facility, instead of on the job site, it ensures a consistent, high quality product.
The surface designs have the authentic look and feel of stacked stone and other authentic patterns, most people can’t even tell the difference. Since the color is mixed prior to casting, it stays consistent throughout the wall.
