- high strength steel bars(tendons).
- normal concrete(>M25)
- sheaths for cable duct.
- anchors.
- jacks.

Precast concrete is a construction product produced by casting concrete in a reusable mold or "form" which is then cured in a controlled environment, transported to the construction site and lifted into place ("tilt-up"). In contrast, standard concrete is poured into site-specific forms and cured on site.

∙ 9y agoA person can make precast concrete by creating a mold for the concrete. Then, a person will need to create a pattern and test the mold to ensure it creates the correct shape.

Is Prestressed concrete the same as regular concrete?
Yes the raw materials used are the same but design as per market requirement..!! Prestressed concrete is used for bridges and damms where concrete pouring is not possible
What is the applications of prestressed concrete?
Applications of prestressed concrete:Used in large diameter concrete pipesUsed in railway sleepersWater tanksPrecast concrete piles to counter tensile stress during transport and erection. used in bridges construction
Why it is need to use high strength concrete in prestressed concrete?
to offer high resistance in tansion,shear and bond
Can fly ash be used in reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete?
There are experimental results showing that the flyash can be used up to 30 % as a cement replacement material. Some up to 80 % flyash has certain properties and it can be used some percent to the concrete mix as a admixture.. Proper trial mix and test shall be carried out for required strength and durability..
