Hollowcore Speeds Up Construction and Cuts Costs for Parking Structure

Written by Admin | Sep 1, 2022

County Prestresss manufactured and delivered hollowcore planks for an underground parking garage in Hopkins, Minnesota, reducing cost and minimizing inconvenience during construction. Hollowcore supports heavy loads across wide spans without requiring additional support columns, maximizing the useable space. Prestressed concrete panels are economical, have high fire ratings, and reduce sound transmission. 

The parking podium provides a safe, long-lasting facility for residents of the Raspberry Ridge Apartments, located adjacent to Main Steet. County Prestress’ dispatch and fleet teams coordinated the delivery of 13,000 SF of prestressed planks over four days to minimize road closures and meet the construction schedule.
