Before a construction project can begin, there is a lot of planning, number-crunching, designing, and scheduling that needs to occur. The designer helps the client develop budgets, schedules, potential issues, the scope, and other details related to the planning of the entire project. What does a preconstruction manager do?

Use of Precast Concrete in frames: There are two main types of precast building frame. The structural frame consists of slabs, beams and columns. Structural frames are mainly used for offices, car parks and retail developments. The cross-wall frame consists of floor slabs and solid walls. It is used mainly for hotels, schools and hospitals.

A smooth outer surface provides the main support for the concrete as it sets. Always inspect the formwork prior to pouring. When concrete is fresh and in its liquid state it must be restrained within a mould in order for it to set in its required shape. Formwork is the term used to describe this mould. This is normally made of plywood.

An advantage of the H frame is that it enables components to be designed to act together, resulting in shallower structural depth. Lateral forces can be carried on the frame itself allowing wind loads to be transmitted into the frame and joints. Tolerance may also have to be smaller to permit joints to be assembled very accurately.
