Talk:Precast concrete

Untitled
I disagree with the deletion of any and all links to relevant pages. I think that an addition section should be added at the bottom of the article for external links, including links to www.precast.org (the center for the latest news and happenings in precast concrete) and aftec.com, a new manufacturer that is making the largest residential/commercial form that I am aware of, selling for about $250,000 per form.

These sites both contain interesting and relevant information regarding the topic of precast concrete. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hallcito9 (talk • contribs)


 * When someone is (1) insistent on a commercial link to the precast concrete article (2) adds numerous wikilinks to other pages to point back to the precast concrete article, I smell advertising. See WP:SPAM and WP:EL for more info. OhNo itsJamie Talk 16:34, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

I would like to see Concrete Systems Inc. be added to the external links because it specializes specifically in precast concrete products. The website is also a wealth of knowledge for this article. The website is www.csigroup.com. Being perhaps a little to close to this company i would like someone else to evaluate it and i would trust their opinion as to its actually value for this articlljkje. I don't believe that wikipedia should be in advertising or just a collection of external links. Please add if its neither of these. Thanks Strangealibi 18:58, 5 April 2007 (UTC)


 * None of the External links provide any information on precast concrete. The article has no reference citations or footnotes. Where did the information in the article come from? – Mattisse  (Talk) 13:43, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Link to Tilt Slab
how can this page not link to tiltslab? its about the most common form of precast anyone is going to see these days.

Good idea to link to tiltslabs. However, it may be visible but there are many other more common forms of precast (CMU, hollow core slabs, pipe, manholes, etc.). Additionally, tiltslabs, aka tilt-up is most common in warmer climates. In the US it is common in the South and West and uncommon in the Northeast and Midwest.

Link to CLASP
There is no page for CLASP. Its probably way out of date now, but it was a huge building method in the 60s and relates to precast too.

9/3/2013 The first sentence has a mild inaccuracy: precast concrete does not require re-usable molds, though they are typical of most structural and machine-made products (CMU, tees, etc.). In architectural precast most molds are project-specific and never get used again. Some pieces are used for a single pour. I suggest deletion of "re-usable". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.211.129.11 (talk) 01:53, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
