Precast Buildings

Hi,
As the song goes – “You’re in the army now, wow wow you’re in the army now.” and before will take over the posts and check-posts will to practice a little bit in being soldiers in the precast of the shooting range =)

Now, I look at everything in the eyes of structural engineer. Those buildings in the shooting range that we call them precast are really Precast concrete structures. And from my perspective eye the are simple, low cost and long lifetime. Look on those two. both are sheds: one is with a single slope roof and the second is double slope roof.

The second is more interesting – it is simply a truss made out of precast concrete elements. Not something you see everyday, do you?
