Precast and site-cast panels are both concrete products and offer advantages over both CMU and metal; however, there are differences. Fabcon’s precast is manufactured in a controlled environment with highly-skilled workers that specialize in the manufacture of precast products. Precast can be manufactured year-round with consistent, documented quality.

Site-cast is subject to variable weather conditions and restrictive pouring conditions. The site-cast manufacturing process limits access of other trades to the construction site and often impacts constructions schedules. Pouring panels on the slab often causes critical damage to the quality of floor slabs required in today’s buildings. Slab repour and replacement impacts both costs and schedules.
