Precast Benefits
Precast concrete is the perfect choice for projects such as the Memphis Grizzlies’ parking garage. The benefits of precast are numerous and include cost savings, construction speed, and improved safety. Precast construction saves time and money by allowing for faster construction times and reducing the need for onsite labor. Precast concrete also offers increased safety due to its structural strength and fire resistance. Precast concrete is also highly durable and requires minimal maintenance, making it an ideal choice for a parking garage that will see a lot of use. Coreslab Structures’ expertise allowed the project to be completed in a timely and cost-effective manner, while still maintaining the safety and quality that the city of Memphis needed.
