It’s nice, but it’s a pain for BIM modelers because an element (in this case, the DT slab) has one shape in the model but another shape in the drawing. They’re produced just like normal double tees, but then on the construction site, one end is supported evenly while at the other end one stem support is lower than the other. If you’re a precaster in another country, it might be interesting for you to know that in the US double tee slabs for parking garages are warped.
So streamlining the workflow for this type of building is important for engineers and manufacturers all around the world. But first off, why parking decks? Building them with precast makes their design and construction relatively simple, so they’re all over the place: here in Lithuania and the rest of Europe, the Middle East, in the US, Down Under, and throughout Asia. This free webinar on May 7th will be about designing precast concrete parking garages in Revit, with a focus on the warped double tee slab used in the USA (spoiler alert: new tool will be shown).
