Design Opportunities for Total Precast in Affordable Housing
October 8, 2024 | 2:00 pm CST / 1:00 pm MST
Led by experts from LBBA and presented in partnership with PCI, discover how precast construction transforms affordable housing design, offering flexibility and collaboration at every scale. Explore case studies, learn about the architect-precaster partnership, and uncover how perceived limitations can become powerful strengths with innovative approaches for multi-family housing.
Designers today are increasingly challenged to find building solutions that meet a trifecta of needs: aesthetic vision, high performance, and working within the client’s budget. Enter prefabrication’s most recent evolution—complete building envelope solutions that integrate pre-engineered design, insulation, windows, and aesthetic components.
Join design team partners as they share K12 stories highlighting the benefits of prefabricated solutions. Learn how early collaboration enhances project efficiency, sustainability, and resilience in school construction and gain insights into best practices for successful prefabricated projects.
Discover how MFRs are leading concrete industry decarbonization. Learn about a mix optimization program reducing embodied carbon by 10–50% and a cladding system using 65% less concrete, cutting both embodied and operational carbon in construction.
Explore how prefabrication enhances community buildings' reliability, resilience, and budget efficiency. Learn how architects and engineers use prefabrication to design structures that withstand wear, natural disasters, and keep projects on time and within budget.
Learn how thoughtful planning and preventative maintenance can support future flexibility and expansions, extending the life of food processing facilities. Using prefabrication not only supports USDA requirements but also expedites construction schedules to create a durable and high-quality final project.
Looking for guidance on how to get started using prefabricated building solutions? Join us and gain a comprehensive understanding of precast construction. Discover how to optimize space, ensure structural integrity, and streamline the installation process through effective planning.
