Pre-Topped Double Tees

High-Performance Parking and Outdoor Decks
CarbonCast’s unique corrosion-resistant properties make it ideal for use in primary floor and roof elements for outdoor parking garages or decks.

Conventional steel reinforced decks can be damaged by moisture and the degrading effects of salt and de-icing chemicals. They can crack, stain and spall—even with epoxy-coated reinforcing, admixtures and sealants, which inhibit, but do not prevent, corrosion.

Not so CarbonCast reinforced with C-GRID. With an installed cost equivalent to conventional double tees equipped with corrosion resisting materials, CarbonCast’s non-corrosive properties will not diminish over time, so tees are less likely to crack, stain or spall.

Thinner = Better

CarbonCast Double Tee flanges can be made with less covering concrete, weighing up to 15 percent less than conventional precast to significantly reduce structure costs and resulting in:

• Reduced foundation loads
• Supporting elements/connections designed for lighter loads and/or wider bays
• Shallower tees that enable increased clearance under tees or decreased structure heights
• Lower shipping and erection costs
• Less maintenance, better long-term performance
