	Precast speeds tower, terminal construction
		Delivering a new airport control tower and terminal building may entail difficult challenges for any construction team, but building these facilities in a central location at a major metropolitan airport while air traffic passes all around the site adds an entirely new level to the work.
		That's what faces the building team at Philadelphia International Airport, where precast concrete was specified for the tower and terminal to keep them on time and on budget for completion later this year.
		At its lower level, the control tower is an integral part of the new terminal building, so the tower's heavy precast wall section helps to brace the terminal laterally.
