Precast helps attain LEED Certification 

Environmental attributes of precast concrete: Precast concrete has environmental attributes that can make it preferable to cast-in-place concrete.
Plant casting is more resource-efficient in the use of formwork and reduces waste generated at the construction site. Also, standardized precast elements can be installed more quickly and efficiently, resulting in faster construction times and less on-site equipment noise and emissions. Gaining additional recognition is precast/prestressed concrete, which uses less material to achieve similar load bearing capacity. These types of environmental attributes are important in terms of environmental excellence and contribute to the material's embodied energy.
