How Precast Builds: An Introduction to Precast Concrete Systems

Length 1.0 Hour I Credits: AIA 1.0 HSW LU I 1.0 PDH LIVE22DHPP100

Now more than ever owners and designers are choosing modern prefabricated techniques for their projects. Precast, prestressed concrete projects deliver construction speed, offsite fabrication in controlled facilities for year-round construction, design flexibility with advanced casting and molding capabilities, reduced project risk combining multiple trades into a single contract scope, and reduced building energy consumption, improved indoor occupant comfort, and resistance to fire, blast, mold, and potential storm damage. This course provides an overview of how precast, prestressed components are manufactured, PCI’s leading industry certification program, as well as numerous innovative examples of resilient, sustainable architectural and structural precast concrete applications.

Learning Objectives

• Overview of Precast Concrete Systems: Gain an understanding of architectural and structural precast concrete systems, connections, and constructability.
• Precast Concrete Advantages: Explore the benefits of precast concrete including accelerated, all-weather construction, energy efficient building envelopes, and enhanced occupant comfort.
• Aesthetic Versatility: Learn how precast concrete products can deliver a multitude of textures and finishes.
• Resiliency Concepts: Understand the concept of resiliency and how precast concrete systems provide robust multi-hazard protection.
