FP McCann’s prestressed horizontal panels allow you to construct walls quickly and efficiently with the future-proof option of re-siting if required; providing the ideal solution where adaptability of buildings is important.
Our wall panels are manufactured using prestressing wires and C45/55 concrete, which gives them in-built strength and resilience.

Stability and Durability
FP McCann’s prestressed panels are highly resistant to accidental damage, as they can flex on impact when normal block walls could crack. Panels are easily removed and re-sited within the existing farm plant, providing flexibility to change a configuration of the structure as the client’s future needs evolve.
Considerable wall heights can be achieved through stacking horizontal panels (spanning between columns or fixed within the walls). Various panel heights are available including 1000mm, 1200mm and 1500mm; these can be mixed and matched according to the client’s requirements.
This system is particularly useful for raising internal and external ground levels in or around a building frame, or for kingpost applications to retain an earth bank.
Foundations
Connected to the building frame by transmitting the load against stanchions, these panels are held in place with bolts and cleats and do not require foundations.
