GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS ON THE PREFABRICATION OF CONCRETE STRUCTURES

CONSIDERACIONES GENERALES SOBRE LA PREFABRICACION DE ESTRUCTURAS DE CONCRETE

The problem of the prefabrication of concrete structures is studied, especially the advantages and disadvantages of in-situ construction. The field of prefabrication, in which Mexico has the greatest experience, is that of bridge construction, where concreting tables located near the construction site are used for manufacturing prestressed beams while the superstructure of the bridge is being built. /TRRL/
