A layout that allows at least 24 beams to be cast per week, not alot of staging and moving around, tensioning all at once, shelter, lot size, etc...

Jee, thats a big yard - I haven't seen one that size. The largest one I have seen in Australia has 2 moulds for beams upto 35m long. Turnaround is 1 beam a day.<br>
