Precast Concrete for Warehouse Walls The ACP precast concrete wall system is a fast track construction method for warehouses and distribution centres. •Interlocking prestressed concrete wall panels span between building columns to produce a foundation free, smooth, hard wearing wall in a fraction of the time required by more traditional methods of construction. •Precast concrete panels are manufactured to suit individual requirements and are available in a range of widths (0.5m, 0.7m, 1m, 1.1m 1.2m, 1.5m) that can be combined to achieve the desired wall height. The flexibility of manufacture enables the precast wall panels to be produced to almost any size to suit the building layout. •ACP Concrete panels are designed to BS 8110 and are available in three standard thicknesses. In most warehouse applications the lightweight 95mm thick prestressed concrete panels are suitable. For high load applications our engineering department will advise as to the most economical precast option. •Apertures for windows and doors can be accommodated as required. •The wall panels are designed to be installed on the inside face of the steel columns or between the webs of the columns as shown above.
