Introduction
Today, In construction expenses has a vital role in eveyday’s activity. That’s why
some companies are finding ways or alternatives to every activities or materials
that will conserve and lessen the expenses. Not only expenses but time. Time
which is the most valuable in construction. Time and expenses should be
considered as top priority so that the project will not fail.
Purpose/Rationale
The main purpose of precast panels is to lessen the work while still achieving the
standard and best strength and other concrete specifications. When the work is
lessen, manpower and time also decrease as well as the cost. Precast panels is
an alternative for CHB (Concrete Hollow Block).
The purpose of this concept paper is to help companies overcome the issues and
problems occuring at the construction site involving materials, cost and
timeframe.
Project Description:
Goals
The goal for this project is to give companies better ways or alternatives for
construction. If this project is given thought or consideration, this could help them
reach a better solution for their problems on materials, manpower and time.
Objectives/Research Questions
Most engineers prefer Precast Panels and these are Factors on how their
preference.

TIMELINE
By the finish of this study, we will have learn the difference between Precast
Panels and Concrete Hollow Blocks.
Benefits or Anticipated Outcomes
1. Superior strength and Durability
3. Ease of installation
4. Consistent Quality
5. Environment-Friendly
6 Modularity
Can be adapted to suit any building size
7. Efficiency
Minimal manpower
Time efficient
Total flexibility
Precast panels will use as alternative material for CHB (Concrete Hollow Blocks).
It can use for walls, low walls, and partition walls. It is quite cheaper compare to
concrete hollow blocks also pre cast panels are easy to install because it will be
fabricated in concrete factory before it is delivered to construction site. Also in its
fabrication, it will make sure that the strength and durability will meet the
standard measure.

This table shows the cost between CHB and PRECAST PANELS. On the far left
are the sample projects made.
