To Analysis the Meritorious Advantages of Precast Structure over Cast In Situ Building Construction In Allied With Time And Cost At Mumbai Region

Abstract

Most construction projects use cast-in-place concrete, in which the wet mixture is poured andformed directly at the construction site. Since this often takes place on a construction site, the term sitecast concrete has become the standard. An analogy is drawn to the usage of precast concrete, in whichpieces are cast off-site and then transported to the construction site. Concrete for on-site casting isoften delivered using the iconic revolving-barrel concrete mixer trucks. In a centralized batching plant,where stricter quality control over the components may be maintained, the mixture is prepared. At everystage of the process—from transport to the site to proper mixing in the truck to unloading anddepositing in the forms and handling for placement, finishing, and curing—the level of responsibility andcompetence exercised by the people involved is vital. Extreme steps may need to be taken to ensureclose monitoring of each stage of production if accessibility and weather at the work site have a majorinfluence on the quality of the work. While the focus here is not on construction management orprocedures, a basic understanding of these topics would aid in the creation of workable designs forconcrete buildings. Cast-in-place concrete and precast concrete are two competing constructiontechniques supplied by various contractors for the structural elements, and a breakeven formula isestablished to help evaluate and pick the best solution. The criteria for selection is the one that will havethe least financial impact. The quantity of works, in this case concrete, is taken into account apart fromother factors. Finding that the transportation and shifting cost of Precast components significantlyimpacted the entire cost of construction, this research aims to help decision-makers and engineersanalyze both concrete building approaches early in the construction planning stage.
