Precast Concrete Detailing Services for Structural & Architectural Elements
Strata Vertex provides end-to-end precast concrete detailing services for commercial, industrial, infrastructure, and institutional projects across the United States and Canada. Our detailing supports precast manufacturers, contractors, and engineers with accurate shop drawings that align with fabrication, transportation, and erection requirements.
We focus on precision, coordination, and constructability—ensuring precast elements are detailed with correct geometry, reinforcement, connections, and tolerances for smooth production and installation.
Our drawings are developed to reduce fabrication errors, site clashes, and erection delays.
Fabrication-Ready Shop Drawings
Detailed drawings tailored to plant fabrication processes, mold requirements, and lifting constraints.
Connection & Embed Coordination
Accurate detailing of embeds, plates, anchors, and connections coordinated with steel, cast-in-place concrete, and façade systems.
Erection & Handling Considerations
Inclusion of lifting inserts, pick points, temporary bracing, and erection sequencing inputs.
Code-Compliant Reinforcement
Reinforcement detailing aligned with PCI standards, ACI codes, and project specifications.
Our precast detailing services cover the full lifecycle of precast elements—from shop drawing development to erection coordination. We account for casting tolerances, lifting stresses, transportation limits, and site installation conditions during the detailing process.
Strata Vertex works closely with precast fabricators and structural engineers to ensure connection details, embeds, and interfaces are clearly defined and coordinated—supporting efficient fabrication and safe erection.
3 Simple Steps to Process
Precast concrete detailing requires careful planning, coordination, and precision to ensure elements are fabricated and erected as intended. Our process is designed to translate architectural and structural design inputs into clear, coordinated, and fabrication-ready precast shop drawings that support efficient production and on-site assembly.
Review of structural and architectural drawings to identify precast elements, connections, and detailing requirements.
Preparation of detailed shop drawings including reinforcement, embeds, lifting inserts, and connection details with cross-trade coordination.
Incorporation of review comments and final issuance of drawings ready for fabrication and erection.
Our precast detailing scope includes precast wall panels, beams, columns, and slabs covering both architectural and structural elements. We provide detailed reinforcement layouts with bar schedules, embed plates, anchors, sleeves, and connection details, along with lifting inserts and handling provisions. Our deliverables also include joint detailing, interface coordination between precast and adjacent systems, and erection drawings with sequencing support to ensure smooth fabrication and on-site installation.
Quality & Standards
Quality in precast concrete detailing is essential to achieving accurate fabrication, safe handling, and efficient erection. Our quality framework is built around strict adherence to PCI Design Handbook guidelines, ACI standards, and project specifications, with a strong emphasis on coordination and constructability to ensure reliable, field-ready deliverables.
- Compliance with PCI Design Handbook, ACI, and project specifications
- Coordination with structural steel, tilt-up, and cast-in-place concrete
- Multi-level internal quality and constructability reviews
- Support during fabrication, delivery, and erection phases
