PRE - CAST PANEL LIFT

The following images were taken whilst a pre- cast panel lift was taking place at a multi -story residential site in Essendon.

The panel is lifted at strategic points to ensure stress is equally distributed through the panel.



It's interesting to notice that the panel is being lifted with the temporary bracing already attatched to it.
