2. Description
Precast concrete Wide slab floors are the rapid
solution to high quality, economical concrete floor
construction where long spans and/or high load
bearing capacities are required.
Suspended concrete floors are constructed using
prestressed planks supported by either masonry
walls or a supporting frame structure in either steel
or precast concrete.
Precast concrete floors constructed in ACP’s wide
slab plank system is suitable for all floor levels
from ground to roof.

4. Market Potential & Business
Opportunity:
Precast concrete manufactured offsite for
structural and ornamental elements have been
extensively used for a wide variety of projects,
from railway sleepers to bridge elements,
housing and stadia.
Precast concrete products are reported to
potentially reduce waste on construction site by
as much as 50% when compared to
moretraditional approaches.
5. competitive advantages
Quick erection times
Reduced need for plant on site
Easier management of construction
sites
Better overall construction quality
Ideal fit for simple and complex
structures
6. Is it technological enough ?
Developers are now adopting precast concrete
and engineering homes technology in their
projects after encouraging results of these
technologies in Europe and the Middle East.
Engineered and precast homes have brought
in a drastic change in the construction industry
over the traditional method of construction,
which involves assembling partially constructed
components manufactured inside a factory.
7. Recommendations
Precast concrete technology has
proved its worth by saving a lot of
construction time. The best part of the
technology is that it not only speeds up
construction work but also enhances
the quality of the final output. The use of
this technology can bring down the
construction cost by 10-15 %
