This is a private event only open to Architects, Engineers, Specification Writers, Builders, Developers, or other building/design related occupations. This event is free and we ask that you only sign up if you are commited to attending. Thank you!
Attendees will observe firsthand how designs and engineering details are executed in the precast manufacturing process. They will also observe the entire precast and prestressed manufacturing process from engineering and connections, forms set-up, casting and finishing. Attendees will gain a better understanding of precast and prestressed capabilities and related quality issues. Attendees will learn how precast fits within the entire building system and how to specify precast concrete accurately and safely.
Learning Objectives:
Discuss the wellness/welfare aspects of precast concrete as a building material
Explain how the precast concrete production process applies sustainability concepts
Discuss the quality control procedures endemic to the precast concrete production process
Implement sustainable precast design and manufacturing concepts to their own production processes
