In India there is a large shortage of housing and increase in cost of construction is a big problem to overcome this shortage.
The major cost increase in house built is due to two factors, they are:
i. Increase in basic cost of materials ii. Increase in labour costs.
To reduce material consumption and to reduce labour component many cost reducing system and techniques are essentially required[1]
Introduction

Precast is the construction product by casting concrete in reusable mould, which is cured in controlled environment and transported to the site.
Traditional in-situ construction is too slow to cope-up with this increasing demand.
By pre-cast, better quality buildings can be constructed at faster rate.
Compared to site-cast concrete, precast concrete erection is faster and less affected by adverse weather conditions.
Precast construction

As self-supporting ready-made components are used,
shuttering and scaffolding are eliminated to greater extent.
Pre-cast moulds can be used for a large number of times.
It is easier to produce components with structurally efficient
shapes in pre-cast construction.
Production can be done independent of the weather
condition.
Advantages

Supervision and better quality can be ensured.
Hazards of fire, accidental damage, effects of temporary construction and inaccurate workmanship can be eliminated.
High Efficiency, quality control and greater control on finishes.
Same type of components are produced again and again.
Waste materials can be used.

To ensure monolithically more reinforcement is necessary. Special care should be taken while handling and erection to
avoid damage and breaking. Temporary supports may be necessary in some cases.
Chance of leakage through joints.
Connections should be designed.
Disadvantages

Structural integrity of the whole structure.
To transfer forces between the precast elements.
Generally connections are done where BM is zero and SF is max.
The design of connection may be compression joint, tension joint, shear joint etc.
Connections

These are the basic connection in pre-cast.
i. Bolting.
ii. Grouting reinforcing bars at the site.
iii. Embedding reinforcing bars in epoxy or polyester at the site.
iv. Welding.

The two types of connections tested proved to be efficient and reliable systems that simplify and speed up the construction of precast concrete frame structures.
Connections should be carefully designed where the impact or dynamic forces are much higher.
Building can be constructed upto 4 storey height(12m) without extra care at joints.
Used in structure where strength is not major criteria.
