Building Corrections Facilities with Precast Concrete Modules

Fibrebond is the only precast manufacturer to build panelized, 6-sided modules for corrections facilities. Our panelized modules allow for economical flexibility of design and construction. Construction solutions include single, corner and multiple occupancy cells to make more efficient use of space. The advantages of building with precast concrete cells include:

• Speed and Quality of Construction. Site work is reduced since modules are manufactured in Fibrebond's PCI-certified plant facility. This means quicker erection and faster completion. Cells can be outfitted with detention furniture in Fibrebond's facility and interior walls, floors and ceilings are finished per customer specifications. PCI certification ensures a high level of third-party quality control.
• Durability. Precast concrete is resistant to rust, mold and inmate damage. Modules also carry a two-hour fire rating to protect life and property.
• Strength. Precast concrete modules are designed for 140 mph wind rating and can be increased with additional reinforcement. Modules are also UL-752 bullet resistant and can carry Seismic 4 compliance when needed.
• Cost and Energy Efficiency. Maintenance costs are lower due to the natural resistance to inmate damage. Also, high mass-enhanced R-value means lower energy costs (thermal mass effect).
• Sustainability. Concrete is an environmentally friendly building material and can help you earn a significant number of LEED points, including resource efficiency, durability, thermal mass, reflectivity and minimal waste.
