Sustainable Practices, Superior Quality

At Austin PreStress, we are committed to using high-performance concrete infused with environmentally friendly pozzolan, a recycled material sourced from coal burning power plants. This commitment to sustainable practices does not compromise our quality; instead, it enhances it. Our expertise extends beyond regular production facilities. We can set up temporary production facilities to support large-scale projects, demonstrating our versatility and dedication to delivering exceptional results.

Strategically Located, Far-Reaching Impact

Situated in the heart of Texas, Austin PreStress ensures swift and efficient shipments across the state. We serve both private and public owners, contributing to major projects led by esteemed organizations such as the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), North Texas Toll Authority (NTTA), and Regional Mobility Associations (RMA). Our work extends to various city, county, and public work departments, making us a trusted name in the industry.

Partnerships for Innovation

Collaboration is at the core of our success. We have partnered with renowned institutions like the University of Texas, Texas Tech, Texas A&M, Oklahoma State University, and the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) to develop groundbreaking designs for innovative bridge products. Our custom-engineered precast/prestressed solutions are tailored to meet the unique demands of challenging applications.

Our portfolio speaks for itself. From supplying 2.5 miles of precast 1212 box culverts for the International Boundary and Water Commission (IBWC) to demonstration sound walls for the Austin district of TxDOT, we have a proven track record of delivering excellence. Our expertise extends to prestressed overhang panels for bridge decks, showcasing our ability to tackle diverse projects with utmost precision.

Products

*Concrete Traffic Barriers (CTB)*

Since 1980, Austin PreStress has been producing CTB for TxDOT projects and other owners. We produce 'Low Profile', 'Single slope' and standard 'Jersey' shaped barriers in standard lengths and can produce CTB in custom lengths and designs for unusual needs.

*Bridge Deck Panels (PCP)*

These prestressed slab units span between the bridge beams, becoming the integral bottom, tension zone, of the finished bridge deck. These TxDOT designed panels (PCP) are the safest, fastest, and most economical deck forming method in modern bridge construction today.

*Sound Walls*

A newer transportation-related product, sound walls help deflect traffic noise from adjoining residential properties. Austin PreStress has produced both precast and prestressed designs, some with very intricate surface features.

*Retaining Walls*

We have produced precast and prestressed wall panels for both mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls and soldier pile (tie-back) wall panels with a variety of surface finishes. Our ability to prestress designs produces panels with higher strengths and more crack resistance, providing the owner with a more durable structure.

*Unusual, Specially Engineered, Precast, Prestressed Products*

Austin PreStress is no stranger to unusual or large, specialty projects. We have produced state-of-the-art, full-depth cantilever bridge deck panels for TxDOT demonstration projects as well as miles of jumbo (12'x12') precast box culverts for the US International Boundary Commission. If you have a concrete project, no matter how unique or challenging, we are ready to turn your vision into a reality.
