Design expertise for precast construction – concept and structural solutions

Elematic offers specialized design services to help you turn architectural visions into durable precast structures. From early concept development to detailed structural engineering and BIM modeling, we provide solutions that ensure efficiency, safety, and precision throughout your project lifecycle.


Concept Design

Our concept design service evaluates the feasibility of precast technology for your project and optimizes architectural layouts for precast construction. We create structural schemes, typical floor layouts, and connection details, supported by geometrical BIM models. This early-stage planning helps you estimate material quantities and select the right precast production system, setting a strong foundation for detailed design.

Structural engineering services

Structural engineering services offers a comprehensive view of the factors affecting the feasibility of precast in your project.

As a result, you will receive a detailed design for developing framing plans, connection details, quantities and a tender package, as well as construction/fabrication drawings and documentation.

A peer review will help you validate and optimize the design.
