Hollowcore is a high-performance construction material predominantly used in multifamily residential and commercial projects. Its prestressed fabrication makes it an ideal choice for roof and floor systems, as it supports high load capacities across long, column-free spans. Hollowcore endures weather and wear over a prolonged service life and enhances occupant safety and comfort with high fire and acoustic ratings.
Hollowcore is manufactured by County Prestress & Precast to meet the individual load and span requirements of each project, allowing for its usage beyond multifamily housing. County Prestress & Precast also supplies hollowcore for car wash bays, residential complexes, and other diverse applications.
Car Wash Bays
As part of the company’s regional expansion initiative, Kwik Trip built several gas stations across Wisconsin and Minnesota. Each project included the construction of a car wash bay, using hollowcore plank manufactured by County Prestress & Precast. Hollowcore was specified for its ability to maintain structural integrity in damp, high-moisture environments. The prestressed planks were also favorable for creating open spans that allowed equipment to be installed on all sides of the bay with adequate vehicle clearance.
Residential Complexes
Project leaders for the Bowline at Mississippi Crossings relied on 87,000 SF of County Prestress & Precast's hollowcore plank to construct and support the 214-unit residential complex. Hollowcore roof and floor systems were specified for their ultimate efficiency and high-performance strength, capable of meeting demanding structural requirements and construction schedules.
