Features

Accelerated Construction Schedule- Precast components were fabricated concurrently with site and foundation work.

Efficient System- Utilizes precast components for vertical load support, and the cast-in-place topping as a diaphragm, transfering the wind/seismic loads into the cast-in-place shear walls. The cast-in-place topping also increases double tee capacity through composite action, and is finished to provide proper drainage.
