Joints in Precast Parking Structures

Joints in Precast Parking Structures For many years, precast concrete has been a mainstay in the construction of aboveground parking structures. Precast con-crete structures are economical, can be constructed relatively quickly, and make use of in-plant quality control processes to ensure consistency in the concrete material properties, curing

About this site

Oct 01, 2020 Parking structures are constructed using either cast-in-place post-tensioned concrete, cast-in-place non-prestressed concrete, or precast/prestressed concrete. Design considerations such as effects of geographic location and volume changes (which include elastic shortening, creep, shrinkage, temperature change, and restraint), are critical when designing and constructing a parking structure.

economy of post-tensioned concrete parking structures. In some cases, such as the Sands Hotel/Casino Parking Structure on page 11, depth reduction was an essential factor in meeting code height restrictions. For the Douglas Parking Structure (see page 10), reduction in height of the parking structure was a primary architectural consideration.

About this site

evelopers of new parking struc-tures often choose precast concrete construction, both for its cost savings and for the fast track construction schedule it allows. Fabricated in a manufacturing plant, precast concrete elements are shipped fully formed to the construction site, where they are assembled. Because it is cast

CORROSION MITIGATION OF PRECAST CONCRETE PARKING

Unfortunately, precast concrete structures (Fig. 1) can be susceptible to premature corrosion-related deterioration, resulting in higher maintenance costs. In this article, we will present ways to mitigate cor-rosion, minimize maintenance, and extend service to existing and new precast concrete parking garages. CORROSION FUNDAMENTALS
