Flexible Design and Efficient Installation
The Shakopee Apartments project highlights the versatility of hollowcore in mixed-use construction. County Prestress & Precast supplied hollowcore and solid slabs for the podium of the apartment complex, creating open, column-free spaces that maximize usable area while accommodating unique angles and tight construction sites. Hollowcore also helps reduce noise transmission and enhances fire safety, providing tenants with comfort and peace of mind.
Hollowcore provides an instant work deck upon installation, allowing other trades early access to the site and helping keep the project on schedule. County Prestress & Precast coordinated closely with the contractor and erector, providing value engineering services that helped the project remain within budget. This application demonstrates how hollowcore’s design flexibility, installation efficiency, and durability make it an ideal solution for modern mixed-use developments.
