Precast concrete construction system has its own characteristics which influence the

layout, span length, construction depth, and stability system to a great extent. In precast
concrete construction, majority of structural members are manufactured in manufacturing
plants away from the construction site. After that, they are delivered to the project site to
be erected.

Various connections have been developed to connect different types of structural

elements like beam to column connection and panel to panel connection. In this manner,
the imposed loads are transferred from superstructure to the foundation.

Designers should consider the possibilities, restrictions, detailing, manufacturer,

transport, erection and serviceability stages before finalizing the design of precast
concrete structure.
