Steel & Precast.
Reimagined.
The D-Beam® girder sits within the plane of the floor assembly — not below it. No formwork. No shoring. No above-grade concrete pours. Single-trade erection.
- ✓Adds 2+ floors at permitted height — permanent, recurring revenue
- ✓Single trade (ironworkers) — no sequencing conflicts
- ✓No wet concrete above grade — weather off the critical path
- ✓No proprietary vendors — standard competitive bidding
- ✓73% repeat use rate among architects & engineers
Whatever your seat
at the table —
"I need projects to finish on time, on budget, every time."
Girder-Slab® isn't a premium option — in high-cost urban markets it's risk management. The conventional alternative carries compounding tail risk that can erase the profit of several successful projects.
- ✓18% verified all-in savings vs. conventional steel + concrete
- ✓4-month schedule reduction advances revenue, cuts carry costs
- ✓Floor-count optimization at permitted height = permanent revenue
- ✓Weather eliminated from the critical path
"Give me something that works with how we design buildings."
ASD and LRFD compatible. No proprietary analysis software. CS3 provides free engineering consultation throughout design — tools, details, and spec language at no cost to the project.
- ✓ASD (AISC 9th) and LRFD (AISC 14th) fully supported
- ✓D-Beam® Girder Calculator — free, live sizing tool
- ✓Standard CAD details + specification language provided
- ✓UL K912 fire rating — 2-hour and 3-hour restrained assemblies
"I need a structure my crews can actually build on schedule."
One trade. No wet concrete above grade. No shoring stack gating your schedule. Steel erection proceeds above planked floors — breaking the sequential dependency that makes conventional pours so punishing.
- ✓Single trade erection — ironworkers only, no sequencing conflicts
- ✓No shoring — no 3-floor shoring stack blocking progress below
- ✓No 28-day cure wait — upper floors proceed immediately
- ✓MEP follows floor-by-floor — faster access, fewer conflicts
"Show me what the floor-to-floor numbers actually mean for my design."
18–24″ of additional floor-to-floor height per level is design real estate. More ceiling height at the same footprint, more floors at the same permitted envelope, or both. CS3 works directly with the design team.
- ✓2+ additional floors at permitted height — Troy Boston case study
- ✓Greater ceiling heights at same envelope = premium unit positioning
- ✓STC 55+ without carpet — IIC meets code with standard finishes
- ✓All demising walls non-load bearing — full flexibility
