Prefabricated garage – durable concrete construction

The prefabricated garage is a modern solution to the problem of vehicle storage, combining the durability of concrete with the speed of assembly. Prefabricated garages are produced as complete modules consisting of walls, ceiling and foundation, ready for transport and setting. Prefabrication technology ensures high quality workmanship, repeatability of dimensions and resistance to weather conditions.

The structure of the concrete garage is based on monolithic reinforced concrete walls 8-10 cm thick, reinforced with Ø8-10 mm steel mesh. The ceiling is made as a 12-15 cm thick reinforced concrete slab, calculated for a payload of 250 kg/m². Concrete garages are produced from concrete of class C35/45, ensuring frost resistance F150 and waterproofness W8.

Technology for manufacturing prefabricated garages

The manufacturing process of prefabricated concrete garages is carried out under controlled factory conditions. Forming in precision steel molds guarantees surface smoothness and dimensional accuracy of ±5 mm. Vibrating the concrete mixture eliminates air voids, increasing the tightness and strength of the structure.

Maturation of the finished concrete garages is carried out in post-tensioning chambers, where the concrete reaches 70% of the target strength within 24 hours. The elements then undergo a 28-day seasoning period, during which the concrete reaches full strength. Each modular concrete garage undergoes quality control including geometric measurements and strength tests before leaving the plant.

Modular construction of concrete garages

The modular system of prefabricated garages allows individual units to be combined into garage units. Standard modules of 3×5 m, 3×6 m or wider 3.5×6 m can be put together in series. The prefabricated garages are equipped with system connectors that enable tight connection of adjacent modules.

As an option, the prefabricated concrete garage can be equipped with an inspection channel 140 cm deep, allowing inspection of the vehicle chassis. Gravity ventilation implemented through openings in the gable walls provides air exchange. Surface-mounted electrical installation in PVC pipes allows lighting and powering of workshop equipment.
