The Prestressed Group supplied product for the third to fifteenth floors of the new Detroit Motor Casino Hotel, each consisting of approximately 15,500 square feet of 10” hollowcore plank and 3,600 square feet of 10” solid slabs, for a total of approximately 200,000 square feet of 10” hollowcore plank and approximately 47,000 sq. ft. of 10” solid slabs.

This is a completely steel structure, and the precast planks were designed to stabilize the columns and to act as a diaphragm for each floor.

A quick delivery was required, and approximately 4,000 square feet of plank were shipped to the job site per day, resulting in precast planks being completely installed in fourteen weeks.
