This 2 hour online course discusses erection considerations for precast concrete structures. These structures include long, heavy members; exposed structural frames; instability during erection and special access conditions created by tight construction sites. Precast concrete structures tend to be multi-story and contain vertical-load supporting members, such as columns and wall panels. The precast concrete members are usually manufactured in an off-site plant and transported to the job site for erection. This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end.
