Benefits of offsite precast hybrid construction

Speed, accuracy and safety resulting from portal unit adoption

Portal units comprising two columns and a beam - cast as a single unit - can significantly reduce potential erection time, resulting from fewer crane lifts and a major reduction in on site jointing operations.

Greater accuracy

Apart from enabling a faster erection programme, portal units by PCE Ltd, manufactured to tight tolerances, improve the overall quality of a project with improved accuracy of fit. The reduction in lifting operations and on site work has the considerable added benefit of improving on site safety. PCE’s in house company systems enable full control of a project from design initiation through to site handover. Using highly experienced and skilled construction teams, together with PCE's own cranes, helps to ensure the delivery of a first class project on time.
