Precast concrete is a high-performance construction material that offers cost benefits over the entire life cycle of a building, from initial construction costs through operating, maintenance, and replacement costs.
County Prestress & Precast specializes in high-precision precast elevator and stair shafts for mid-rise commercial and residential construction applications. Using precast shafts can lower the overall costs of construction of mid-rise buildings. Because the shafts are manufactured offsite, while the site is being prepared, construction timelines can be significantly shorter compared to traditional construction methods. The shafts can be installed in just hours, and once in place, they provide immediate access for stair installers and tradesmen, inspectors, and first responders.
Precast concrete structures can stay in service for up to 100 years, leading to less frequent demolition and replacement of buildings for structural reasons. The inherent strength and weight of precast concrete helps it withstand high winds with less structural damage than other building materials. Because concrete is non-combustible, the use of precast concrete elevator and stair shafts provides superior egress in the event of a fire.
Precast concrete is designed and manufactured to offer reliable durability and provide prolonged service life with low cost. Use precast concrete for your next project by contacting our Customer Service Team at (352) 275-4605.
