For Precast Manufacturers

From Project to Production

Automated modularization and drawing generation that takes building projects from architectural model to machine readable production files.

Automated modularization and drawing generation for precast plants.

The system analyzes architectural models and breaks them down into individual precast elements that respect your plant's production constraints, mold inventory, and transport limits. What used to take weeks of manual decomposition happens automatically.

  • Automatic decomposition of building models into producible elements
  • Respects maximum dimensions, weight limits, and transport constraints
  • Optimized element sizing based on your mold inventory

Built for how precast plants actually work, not how software companies imagine they work.

What input format does the system need?

The system works with IFC models and native BIM formats from Revit, Tekla, and Allplan. If you receive architectural plans in 2D, we can discuss a workflow to convert them into a usable 3D model as a first step.

How long does it take to process a new building project?

Once your production rules are defined, a typical residential project with 200 to 400 elements can be modularized and have initial drawings generated within a few days. Manual processing of the same scope typically takes three to four weeks.

Can the system handle non-standard element types?

Yes. The rule engine is flexible enough to handle special elements like balcony slabs, staircase units, sandwich panels, and custom facade elements. If an element falls outside the standard rules, the system flags it for manual review rather than producing incorrect output.

Does this work with our existing production equipment?

The system exports machine files in the formats your equipment requires. We support unitechnik, PXML, and can add support for proprietary formats. Before deployment, we test the output files directly on your machines to make sure they work on the first try.

What happens if the architectural model changes mid project?

The system can reprocess an updated model and identify which elements have changed. Only affected elements are regenerated. Unchanged elements keep their existing drawings and approvals, so you do not lose work when architects issue revisions.

How does quality control work?

Every generated drawing goes through a review step before it is released for production. The system also runs automated checks for clashes, reinforcement coverage, and producibility violations. Engineers approve the final output, not the machine.

Concrete recommendations to accelerate your project throughput.

Every precast project starts the same way. Engineers receive architectural plans and manually break them into producible elements, then create individual drawings for each piece. This process takes weeks and is repeated for every new project. Our system does it in a fraction of the time.

Why partner with GSI Labs?

Practical Innovation

We do not build demo tools. Every system we deliver runs in production at real precast plants.

Our automation handles the repetitive engineering work so your team can focus on the elements that actually require their expertise. We test on your projects, with your data, against your standards.

Strategic Edge

While competitors still draw every element by hand, your plant processes new projects in days instead of weeks.

That means faster quotes, shorter lead times, and the capacity to take on more projects with the same team. Over time, this compounds into a significant competitive advantage in a market where speed and reliability win contracts.

Industry DNA

Our team includes structural engineers and software developers who have worked inside precast plants.

We understand the difference between a wall panel and a sandwich element. We know what a production plan looks like. That means no long onboarding, no explaining your industry. We start building on day one.
