A closer look
Precast pieces are made weeks before they arrive. If an embed in the field is misplaced, the piece may not connect. Surveying embeds and following the erection sequence avoids costly delays.
Where to start
Survey embeds before precast deliveries begin.
An example
A GC surveyed embeds and found errors before the first delivery. Corrections avoided a crane standing idle.
Common mistakes
Late approvals, unsurveyed embeds and random delivery order.
What to track
Track deliveries, erection pace and connection issues.
Questions to ask
Are embeds surveyed? Is the crane plan approved? Who controls the delivery sequence?
