Ceramics & precast

Precast concrete part cost and part weight and lifting.

Precast concrete cost

Work out concrete cost per cubic yard from the mix and prices, the volume of typical pieces (pipe, panel, curb, pole), reinforcement, form cost spread over reuses, release agent, curing and labor; see cost and price per piece, per cubic yard and per ton, and form output.

mix, piece, $/yd³

Precast lifting and slings

Calculate the weight of a precast part or load, apply the PCI form suction or dynamic factor, get the tension in each sling leg from the angle and the number of legs actually carrying load, compare with working load limits and see where to place the pick points.
