Wells Webinar: Double Tees for Floor and Roof Structures

Double Tees have become increasingly prominent as a solution to recent construction material shortages, especially in roof and floor structure functions. This presentation will cover how precast double tees can be used, including typical sections, available sizes, design spans and loading. We will delve into common connection details to other structural components, suggestions for layout, and attachment of mechanical, piping, electrical and HVAC items. Attendees will also hear about fire ratings, long term benefits as they pertain to durability and insurance, and a life cycle analysis.

Topics include:
• Typical sections / available sizes as well as design spans / loading
• Estimating camber and the effects of composite topping on design
• Common connection details for both the structure and mechanical, piping, electrical items, and HVAC
• Determining fire ratings
• Long term benefits related to durability
• Long term insurance premium saving
• Life cycle analysis

Wells Educates: Precast/Prestressed Concrete Production and Assembly Webinar

In this new trend of online interaction and communication, attendees will observe virtually how designs and engineering details are executed in the precast manufacturing process. They will also observe the entire precast and prestressed manufacturing process virtually from engineering and connections, forms set‐up, casting, and finishing. Attendees will gain a better understanding of precast and prestressed capabilities and related quality issues. Participants will learn how precast fits within the entire building envelope system and how to design with precast concrete accurately and safely.

Wells Educates: Precast for Schools and ICC-500 Storm Shelters Webinar

Educational facilities are a vital part of the fabric of our society that directly contributes to what our future will be. They are safe havens for a community. Participants will learn how to design and build high performance schools, which provide energy efficiency, safety and resiliency, as well as reduce life cycle costs. This discussion includes information on ICC-500 code requirements while exploring available alternative design options for hardened construction volumes within a school building. The attributes of precast concrete will be presented, demonstrating how these qualities are inherent to the design and construction of safe and efficient storm shelter facilities. Learn more about schools and storm shelters.
