Advantages of Precast Concrete

At Alan Margolin & Associates, we offer a number of NYC special inspection services, including Cast-in-Place, Precast & Pre-stressed concrete inspections. Today, we're giving you the low-down on the advantages that come with using Precast.




The mix, placement and curing can be tightly controlled since it is manufactured in a controlled casting environment - leading to extremely durable concrete. 

Casting is not contingent upon weather. Regardless of the weather, you will receive the same results with precast every time. 

Installation of precast can happen on site immediately. Accelerated curing eliminates the need to wait for strength gain, allowing it to be put in to service quickly. 

Precast materials can be used for a number of products and be bought in bulk, which helps you save on cost. 

Located atop the iconic Grand Central Station in midtown Manhattan, AM & Associates is proud to deliver quick service to our clients. Whether it is a concrete inspection or one of the many other services we offer, our staff of highly trained inspectors work to accommodate your schedule and diligently process and return the constant flow of forms required for each NYC building project.

  1. I think getting precast concrete is a great idea because it is made to be more durable. I think that's really valuable in concrete. I haven't tried to build anything with it before, but I think I might this next summer. I've always wanted to build a patio in my backyard. http://www.cpcaustralia.com/about
