Precast concrete is a type of concrete formed into designated shapes within a controlled environment. Various mixes can be employed to achieve different levels of strength, coloration, and performance characteristics. For added durability and the capability to span larger distances, precast concrete can be reinforced with rebar or steel cables through prestressing. The molds used for precast concrete can be tailored to almost any shape to precisely meet the requirements of the end user. After being cast, the concrete is transported by truck to the construction site, prepared for immediate installation.

Precast concrete offers remarkable flexibility, allowing it to be produced in a wide range of thicknesses, lengths, and strengths. It enables the creation of highly detailed architectural and structural designs, with reusable molds ensuring uniformity across the entire project. Additionally, precast concrete can be crafted in almost any color—or even combinations of colors—and can incorporate textures and veneers to seamlessly integrate visual appeal into the walls.

Precast concrete stands out as an eco-friendly alternative to other building materials. It often incorporates recycled components, such as industrial fly ash or slag, and prestressed concrete utilizes recycled steel. At the end of its lifecycle, precast concrete can be repurposed as aggregate for new concrete, base material for roads, or concrete slabs. Additionally, precast elements can be reused in projects with similar design specifications.

Manufactured in a controlled environment, precast concrete generates minimal waste. It also promotes cleaner, healthier worksites and safeguards the surrounding environment by eliminating the need for extensive on-site storage.

Even after the project is complete, precast concrete continues to contribute positively by leveraging its thermal mass to absorb and release heat gradually, helping to reduce energy consumption and costs.

Precast concrete undergoes curing in a controlled environment with stringent quality assurance measures, ensuring exceptional strength and dependability. By incorporating rebar or steel rods for prestressing, its strength is further enhanced, enabling larger spans and expansive open spaces.

Precast concrete structures have a lifespan exceeding 100 years, becoming even stronger as they age while effectively withstanding environmental factors. For unmatched durability, precast concrete stands as the ultimate choice in construction.

Tooz Construction manufactures precast concrete within a climate-controlled facility, ensuring top-quality, precisely molded concrete that is delivered directly to your job site for installation. This approach enables on-site work to proceed concurrently with the production of precast concrete. It also allows curing to take place regardless of weather conditions, avoiding delays caused by rain, snow, or other weather-related challenges.

Precast concrete streamlines construction by minimizing the number of trades required on-site and allowing interior trades to begin work within the structure sooner.
