This document aims to identify and summarise the key areas that project teams should consider during design development to support the decarbonisation of construction using precast concrete. It is intended to support early, informed conversations between project teams and precast concrete manufacturers, helping to align design ambitions with manufacturing processes and to more effectively realise opportunities for carbon reduction and material efficiency.
