Abstract

In-depth analysis of Kuwaiti precast concrete industry: advantages and limitations of each system outlined. The study shows that precast concrete systems can play a significant role in meeting housing demand in Kuwait, provided that the tendering procedures are modified and that the life-cycle cost of the building is considered rather than just the initial cost.
