Creating Distinctive and Attractive Designs on Precast Concrete Faces

This course is no longer active. AEC Daily will not report completion information for this course.

Concrete is a popular, versatile, and durable construction material, and it has the potential to be very beautiful as well. Graphically imaged precast concrete is a creative, inspiring technology that can be used by architects and designers to create visually impactful building façades and other concrete surfaces. Discussed are the fabrication process, design possibilities, and budgeting considerations. Global case studies present a range of applications of both stock and unique designs.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Review available finishes for interior and exterior precast concrete panels.
  • Explain the fabrication and design process for producing graphically imaged concrete panels using surface retarder membranes.
  • Recall recommended layout and patterns for graphically imaged concrete panels to suit budget, aesthetics, and precast panel configurations.
  • Discuss design possibilities and custom options for graphically imaged precast concrete.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered online, at your own pace.
