Precast Concrete Hollowcore Construction

Economical/Safe/Comfortable Construction for Assisted Living

The solution of choice for safe, solid, secure precast concrete hollow core construction materials that you can depend on for your next assisted-living facility—consider the many benefits of designing your next project using hollow core plank.

Energy Efficient:

Concrete acts as a thermal sink to smooth peak heating and cooling demands. In addition, cross sections greatly reduce heat loss through the roof.

Fire Safety:

Built-in fire-resistance is UL listed for lower insurance costs. And, no structural fireproofing is required.

Increased Load Capacity for Floors:

Additional floor loading for special needs required by Assisted Living Facilities is easily handled with precast hollow core flooring.

Natural Channels for Conduit:

Early design coordination can provide runs for wiring conduit, heating, and plumbing.

Finished Ceilings and Floors:

Hollow core floors and ceilings are ready to receive paint or pad and carpet, saving additional time and money.

Excellent Sound Attenuation:

The natural sound transmission characteristics associated with concrete offer residents quiet privacy.

Economical Investment:

Durable, long-lasting concrete systems return greater savings than other construction materials due to reduced floor-to-floor heights, reduced site time, rapid installation and a longer life span for your investment. Whether you choose to use this safe, solid, secure building material for flooring, roofing or as a complete system it's the right choice.
