When it comes to precast concrete manufacturing, two common methods are used: wet cast and dry cast. Each has unique benefits, and choosing the right approach depends on your project requirements.
Wet Cast Concrete
- Uses a higher water-to-cement ratio.
- Results in a smooth finish, ideal for architectural elements and decorative concrete.
- Requires longer curing times but provides excellent durability and detail.
Dry Cast Concrete
- Has a low water-to-cement ratio, making the mix stiff and compact.
- Commonly used in structural and civil engineering projects such as pipes, manholes, and kerbs.
- Offers faster production with shorter curing times.
