Stage 1, Production of the individual precast wall cladding panels:
Due to the speed at which our crews install our precast concrete wall cladding panels, the production of our individual precast concrete components at our Edmonton facility must start well in advance of our commencement on site. Our project management team works hand in hand with the main contractor to schedule the production of every precast concrete wall cladding panel ahead of time, ensuring that the entire package is ready for shipping as soon as the individual precast wall panel sections are required on the job site.

One of the primary reasons precast concrete was selected for this project because of cost and speed of construction. All Precast concrete components were made off site as shown above and delivered to the project on a "just in time" basis, all shipments were efficiently and conveniently coordinated between Lafarge and the main contractor to ensure the tight project timelines were met.
