Concrete Precast Rib and Block Slabs

Our core business is manufacturing concrete precast rib and block slabs. Reinforcing from 1Y10 to 3Y16 gets cast accordingly, depending on the lattice beam spans. PJ Projects can manufacture ribs of up to 13m long. The engineer will approve all casted ribs/lattice beams. The lattice girder forms a substantial key with the concrete topping. The…
