Precast Concrete Engineering & Design

Expert prefabrication engineering, shop drawings, and erection supervision for diverse structural developments.

Advanced Prefabrication Engineering

Precast Concrete

Prefabrication can be used in many types of buildings, such as Parking garage, industrial, commercial, residential buildings, school, hospital, towers, public building, agricultural building, railway, stadium, sport center, bridge, airport, and infrastructure. GCE has expertise and experience of precast concrete. GCE provides the following services:

GCE Approach

Led by Dr. Mehdi Alavi Fard, Ph.D., P.Eng.—whose published research specifically investigates high-strength concrete under static and dynamic loading—GCE delivers comprehensive engineering support for precasters, general contractors, and structural owners. From initial connection design to final crane erection reviews, our team ensures every precast assembly meets rigorous CSA standards and national building codes.

Key Service Capabilities

Comprehensive Precast Engineering Capabilities

Prefabricated Engineering & Structural Design

Turnkey precast and prestressed concrete structural modeling for parking garages, commercial towers, multi-unit residential buildings, schools, and hospitals.
Heavy infrastructure structural design, including urban rail transit hubs, railway bridges, sports complexes, stadiums, and airport terminals.
Finite element analysis (FEA) and dynamic stress analysis for high-load, long-span structural components.

Fabrication Shop Drawings & Component Modeling

Production-ready precast shop drawings, piece ticketing, and layout embedment plans for fabrication plants.
Detailed design of cast-in hardware, column shoes, corbels, connection bolts, weld plates, and lifting anchors.
Bill of materials, reinforcement schedules, and geometric tolerance checks to eliminate on-site fitment discrepancies.

Temporary Bracing, Propping & Handling Design

Engineering calculations and structural plans for temporary bracing, propping systems, and lateral supports during assembly.
Rigging, lifting insert calculations, and transport stress evaluations to prevent hairline cracking and dynamic transit failure.
Demountable shoring systems tailored to multi-tiered precast parking garages and tall wall panels.

Erection Planning, Logistics & Site Supervision

Development of comprehensive structural erection sequences, mobile crane placement plans, and pick-radius capacities.
On-site structural engineering field reviews during component alignment, grouting, and connection bolting/welding.
Formal engineering site review reports, inspection certificates, and technical sign-offs required by municipal building officials.
