Precast Detailing and Designing Checklist

Precast Detailing technology is extensively used across the world for various purpose such as commercial buildings, stadiums, hospital infrastructure projects like bridges, airports etc. Understanding this technology requirement is very important aspect.

This blog explains several important features required in designing and detailing of building projects using precast detailing technology.

Precast Engineering Services have a responsibility of analysing and calculating the load on precast elements. They determine the load criteria for the design of the entire structure and the impact of the precast erection sequences on individual structural members. Based on these data, the basic structural system is planned.

Once, the Precast panel detailing and Tekla precast concrete detailing are created, precaster is contacted to achieve practical and economical construction methods.

The given below is a checklist of items the design team should consider in the designing and manufacturing of Precast Panel Detailing and Tekla Precast Concrete Detailing.

Architectural specifications

1) Insulated or non-insulated panels

2) Load bearing or non-loadbearing panels

Dimensions of the panel

1) Weight restrictions.

2) Stress limitations

3) Erection feasibility and access

4) Transportation weight and size limitations

5) Production limitations

Supporting structure

1) Points of load application

2) Stability while erection

3) Overall stability

Standardization

1) Achieve maximum repetition of same units to reduce overall prices.

Detailed Designing of Panel

1) Reinforcement:

For functions in the final position.

For stripping, storage, transportation & erection

2) Design of connections, inserts, hardware lifting hooks, etc. for stripping, storage, transportation, and erection.

3) Concrete mixture proportions

Shop drawings

1) Piece drawings

2) Erection drawings

3) Drawings for special handling

4) Connections details

5) Storage diagrams

6) Anchor layout drawings

7) Hardware details

A proper precast concrete detailing and Precast panel detailing in a concrete structure is very important with regard to structural behaviour, safety and good performance. But the rules in codes for designing and detailing are not always easy to understand. However, the above checklist will be beneficial for the builders to understand and fulfil many requirements.
