Abstract

Low-cost economic construction technologies and materials are often the critical part in satisfying the instantly increased demand for the house. For years the practice of using prestressed concrete is applicable in developed countries such as Europe, the United States of America, Russia, and considerable nations of Asia for housing projects. Pre-stressed concrete is substantially pre-stressed during manufacturing in such a way that it is reinforced against the tensile forces that may occur when in operation with an even stronger structural member Produced in the factory using pre-assembled forms, Casting and curing components transported directly to the site and ready for installation. This paper with an initial move towards the headway of the Building industry, particularly on the housing project, with the prospect of the effect of introducing a pre-cast prestressed system. The research mainly focuses on the design of a condo housing project using precast prestressed concrete and noting the significance of adopting such a system in quality, time, and cost. To match the result of adopting such a system, the analyzed value of the prestressed concrete system is compared with typical concrete. Finally, it concludes by discussing the result of the newly developed system and by noticing the region of further exploration.
