Precast Concrete Panels Perth
CoreCast manufactures precast concrete panels and delivers them across Perth and Western Australia. Wall panels, structural panels and architectural facade panels are cast to the project's shop drawings with reinforcement, penetrations, cast-in items and lifting inserts positioned before the pour.
Panel thickness, reinforcement and finish are set by the project engineer and the approved drawings, and depend on loading, span, transport, craneage and the specified finish. Because casting happens off site under controlled production conditions, dimensional accuracy and surface finish are easier to keep consistent across a set of panels, and production can run alongside your earthworks.
CoreCast's scope is manufacture, supply and coordinated delivery. Panels arrive with lifting inserts cast in to the approved details, ready for crane erection by others.
What affects the cost of precast panels?
Panel pricing depends on quantity and repetition, mould reuse, panel size and thickness to the approved engineering, reinforcement, openings and cast-ins, specified finish or form-liner complexity, handling, transport and delivery sequence. CoreCast prices the documented package rather than applying a standard square-metre rate.
Finishes, openings and cast-ins
Before production, confirm the finish specification, nominated faces, pattern direction, joints, reveals and any sample approval requirements. Opening sizes and locations, ferrules, plates and lifting inserts are positioned to the approved documentation, with unresolved service or connection requirements identified to the project team.
Panel size, transport and delivery
Panel dimensions, mass and approved design are assessed with site access, transport and crane constraints. CoreCast coordinates unloading requirements and the delivery sequence with the builder and their erection contractor. Craneage and erection on site are by others.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are precast concrete panels?
Precast concrete panels are wall or structural panels cast off site rather than on the building slab. Reinforcement, cast-in items and lifting inserts are positioned to the shop drawings, the panel is poured and cured under controlled production conditions, then delivered to site ready for crane erection by others.
What information should I send for a panel quotation?
Send current architectural and structural drawings, a panel schedule and quantities if available, finish and sample requirements, documented openings and cast-ins, the delivery address and access information, and target dates. If drawings are incomplete, send what is available and identify the details still being resolved.
How much do precast concrete panels cost in Perth?
Panel pricing is project-specific. It depends on quantity and repetition, mould reuse, panel size and thickness to the approved engineering, reinforcement, openings and cast-ins, specified finish or form-liner complexity, handling, transport and delivery sequence. CoreCast prices the documented supply scope rather than applying a standard square-metre rate.
What finish and sample details are needed before panel production?
Confirm the finish specification, nominated faces, pattern direction, joints, reveals and any sample or benchmark approval requirements before production. Off-form and form-lined or textured finishes are reviewed against the panel geometry and specification. Other specified finish types are confirmed for the particular package rather than assumed.
How long do precast concrete panels take to manufacture?
Production time depends on drawing approval, panel quantity and repetition, geometry, reinforcement, openings and cast-ins, finish and sample approvals, mould requirements and the delivery sequence. CoreCast reviews these dependencies and proposes a production and delivery programme for the quoted package.
Does CoreCast install precast concrete panels?
No. CoreCast's scope is manufacture and supply only. Panels are delivered with engineered lifting inserts cast in, ready for crane erection. On-site lifting, rigging, propping, bracing, grouting and connection works are carried out by your erection crew or others.
How are precast panel deliveries coordinated?
Panel dimensions, mass, transport requirements, site access, unloading arrangements, crane constraints and the required erection sequence are reviewed together. CoreCast coordinates the delivery sequence with the builder and their erection contractor. Unloading, craneage and erection on site are by others.
How do precast panels compare with tilt-up panels?
The practical difference is where the panels are cast. Tilt-up is generally cast on site, usually on the building's floor slab; precast is cast off site and delivered. Which suits a project depends on the approved design, panel size and mass, transport envelope, craneage and site space, the specified finish, repetition and the programme — neither is categorically better.
