      High-Performance Precast Offers Reliable Durability and Low Life Cycle Cost

      Precast concrete is a high-performance construction material that offers cost benefits over the entire life cycle of a building, from initial construction costs through operating, maintenance, and replacement costs.

      County Precast specializes in high-precision precast elevator and stair shafts for mid-rise commercial and residential construction applications. Using precast shafts can lower the overall costs of construction of mid-rise buildings. Because the shafts are manufactured offsite, while the site is being prepared, construction timelines can be significantly shorter compared to traditional construction methods. The shafts can be installed in just hours, and once in place, they provide immediate access for stair installers and tradesmen, inspectors, and first responders.

      Precast concrete structures can stay in service for up to 100 years, leading to less frequent demolition and replacement of buildings for structural reasons. The inherent strength and weight of precast concrete helps it withstand high winds with less structural damage than other building materials. Because concrete is non-combustible, the use of precast concrete elevator and stair shafts provides superior egress in the event of a fire.

      Precast concrete is designed and manufactured to offer reliable durability and provide prolonged service life with low cost. Use precast concrete for your next project by contacting our Customer Service Team at (352) 275-4605.

      Multifamily Builder Specifies Precast Concrete Elevator Shafts for Dependability and Speed of Construction

      LandSouth Construction is a builder known for its tradition of excellence and innovation in the field of multifamily construction. When company leaders planned a new market-rate apartment complex in Pensacola, Florida, they specified precast concrete elevator shafts manufactured by County Precast for their dependability and speed of construction.

      Scheduled to open in 2024, Madison Shores is a 272-unit garden-style apartment development with six four-story buildings. Amenities include a clubhouse, fitness pool, dog park, and designated working areas.

      Precast elevator shafts help accelerate construction timelines by allowing framing to begin weeks earlier than would be possible with traditional building materials. Stair installers and tradesmen, inspectors, and first responders also gain immediate, safe access to the construction site. Precast elevator shafts offer safety benefits during construction and over their extended service life that add to the overall value of a building and can lower insurance costs. Precast concrete resists water damage, withstands strong winds, and is made from non-combustible materials.

      Manufactured to meet exacting specifications, County Precast’s elevator shafts integrate installation safety platforms directly into the hoist-way. Shafts are delivered on-site ready for installation and are compatible with any mid-rise building design. For this project, County Precast installed six precast elevator shafts in two mobilizations.
