The latest PCI Foundation Precast Studio has gotten underway this semester at the New Jersey Institute of Technology. Matt Burgermaster, Assistant Professor at the NJIT School of Architecture is leading 15 students through a semester long study of precast.
The first project the students took on was a hands-on study of how to work with a fluid material that later becomes solid. Substituting plaster for concrete, the students made molds and cast them.
The students are working with local precasters who are members of the Mid-Atlantic Precast Association and PCI Northeast.
The students have also had a tour of Coreslab Structures (Conn).
Keep watching here for more details of the semester as it progresses.
