SPEED OF CONSTRUCTION
Because they are modular units, precast concrete stair systems can be fabricated in advance of need while other work is underway. They then can be installed quickly once the site is prepped.
LOW MAINTENANCE
Precast concrete stairs require little less maintenance than other materials and will never squeak or sag.
SAFETY
Plant casting keeps the site cleaner and eliminates trades from the construction zone. Precast concrete stairs can be installed rapidly, ensuring easy access between floors as other work continues.
DURABLE CONSTRUCTION
As precast concrete components, stair units are solid, durable structures that can support heavy loads without concern about current for future needs.
EFFECTIVE PRICING
Because of precast concrete’s tightly controlled and shorter production process, costs can be more accurately estimated earlier in the process.
GREEN DESIGN
Precast concrete stairs off all the benefits that other precast components provide, including the ability to be recycled after the building’s service life.
Below are several resources that provide more technical details for precast stairs and enclosures.
