One of the best things about precast concrete is its ability to emulate natural stone. Natural stone can be cost-prohibitive, but with precast concrete’s versatility, the look of natural stone can be achieved for a much lesser cost. A great example of emulated limestone overlooks Lake Michigan in Chicago. The Residences of Lake Shore Drive multi-family building was designed by Lucien Lagrange Architects, https://lnkd.in/eAWDUenS The first two floors of the 26-story residential tower were formed using natural limestone. The remaining 24 floors are made of precast concrete that emulates the natural stone. The precast concrete integrates seamlessly with the natural stone base. Furthermore, exquisite detailing in the precast concrete provides depth and definition to the building’s exterior façade while the precast spandrel panels create a rotunda that is reminiscent of the classic and stylish boulevard architecture of Paris. https://lnkd.in/egMR4fbN If you’re looking for a design solution that meets your aesthetic goals, reduces overall costs, and provides more benefits, precast concrete may be for you.

Parking structures are as custom and unique as you make them. They can be enclosed or open and airy. They can be immediately recognizable as parking structures or resemble residential and other buildings. They can be brick or painted. There are so many options to make them your own and precast concrete can help you create whatever design you dream up. Precast concrete parking structures are highly durable, resilient, and sustainable. Check out our website to see some of our past parking structures and get inspired, www.gateprecast.com.

Winter Park Library and Events Center in Winter Park, Florida. These three remarkable structures featuring grand tilted precast panels exemplify some impressive architectural ingenuity. Over several days, I immersed myself in observing and capturing these buildings from various perspectives, mesmerized by how the sunlight gracefully interacted with their surfaces from dawn to dusk. Photographing this project was a significant highlight of my career, a dream I had since first seeing the renderings. To this day, I still feel that I have not yet fully captured this project to my satisfaction.

Although it occurred more than a quarter-century ago, the 1995 bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building on a sleepy morning in Oklahoma City, Okla., still is felt in our nation to this day. Because the federal government and its servants are possible targets, it has become of paramount importance that they are provided the utmost protection as they go about their work. Precast concrete is a vital ingredient in keeping these facilities and their occupants safe. This article includes examples of military installations and federal courthouses show how precast concrete protects life. - Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute https://lnkd.in/gds5DzUu #precast #concrete #construction #design

West Palm Beach is home to this 25-story, pre-glazed beauty. The precast concrete façade was created using locally sourced materials, such as crushed limestone and natural sand, and given a lightly burnished finish. Windows were provided by West Tampa Glass and were installed at our facility, which provided a controlled environment, improving safety and reducing waste. The sustainability features of this project made it an ideal subject for Florida Sustainability recognition.
