Sci-Tech Encyclopedia: Precast concrete
Concrete that has been cast into a form which is later incorporated into a structure. A concrete structure may be constructed by casting the concrete in place on the site, by building it of components cast elsewhere, or by a combination of the two. Concrete cast in other than its final position [...]
The benefits of a precast spliced girder :
Reinforced splice
Precast girders are cast with splicing reinforcement projecting from the ends. The beams are positioned end-to-end on a temporary support, usually near the dead load inflection point, and concrete is cast-in-place at the splice. The girder segments are [...]
The benefits of a precast spliced girder system are
Economy
Fewer piers result in lower overall cost, especially where soil conditions are problematic.
Safety
For overpasses, fewer piers result in longer sight distances and more spacious horizontal clearances. There is less likelihood of vehicle collisions with supporting columns.
Navigation
Across waterways, fewer [...]
BCP’s range of precast traffic islands is revolutionising the way in which these items are constructed.
Traditionally, traffic islands were formed up and poured in-situ taking (in some cases) several days to complete the project. This in turn led to extremely high labour costs with highly skilled contractors and traffic controller required on site for significant [...]

For years, architects, designers and builders across North America have been using brick (with varying degrees of success), as the primary building material in their quest to create modern structures that replicate Byzantine Period architecture. The products available to complete these enduring edifices have been limited by color, size, shape and [...]
Hydra-Steer Trailers from 2 to 9 Axle’s
ERMC’s Hydra-Steer Trailer is a steerable trailer used for transporting very long, self-supporting loads. It allows the driver to control the load whether going forward or backing up. Hydra-Steer trailer designs are available from 2 to 9 axles. The Hydra-Steer is powered by its own hydraulic power unit [...]
When CDS Technologies introduced continuous deflective separation BMPs to the United States in 1996, it revolutionized the treatment of storm water and combined sewer overflows. Since this time, CDS has continued to evolve its methods of water treatment with products distinguished not only by engineering innovation, but by an untarnished record of dependability. How is [...]

The Breakwater Pier at the U.S. Navy Homeport Complex is a 90’ wide x 1500’ long structure with a dual function. It is a berthing facility for Navy ships, and it also serves as a breakwater for the adjacent Carrier Pier.
The pier structure is supported by 24″ hollow octagonal prestressed piles and decked with precast [...]
Hit the beach anywhere in Japan, and you are likely to see endless piles of tetrapods — enormous four-legged concrete structures intended to prevent coastal erosion. By some estimates, more than 50% of Japan’s 35,000-kilometer (22,000-mi) coastline has been altered with tetrapods and other forms of concrete. Critics, who blame the tetrapod invasion on decades [...]
Eating greasy foods may or may not clog your arteries, but one thing is for certain: grease that enters our wastewater systems from restaurants and other dining establishments will eventually clog a sewer system. With the ever-increasing number of restaurants located in North America, the need for effective removal of fats, oils and greases is [...]
