Precast Concrete Institute
The Precast Concrete Institute (PCI) is a professional organization that promotes the use of precast concrete products—pieces of concrete cast in a controlled environment before being transported to construction sites. These products include panels, beams, and blocks used in building and infrastructure projects. PCI provides standards, education, and certification to ensure quality, safety, and efficiency in precast concrete manufacturing and installation. The organization helps architects, engineers, and builders understand the benefits of precast concrete, such as durability, speed of construction, and cost-effectiveness, supporting its widespread use in modern construction.
