Design of Connections and Components for Precast Concrete Parking Structures
The application of precast concrete to parking garage design and construction uses common components and connections, with consideration of the distinct requirements that the parking function imposes. This webinar covers selection and consideration of precast components and the methods used to connect these components into a functioning system.
