Estimated Annual Savings

What you told us
Where the savings come from
Savings lineDelivered byAssumptionAnnual value
Basis and standards: Cycle gains drawn from Sensytec deployments (1 to 4 extra bed cycles per week reported); other reduction rates are conservative, editable estimates. Case studies: Con-Fab prestressed, SensyCure accuracy trial (0.79°F / 0.44°C vs the bed), Harvey Builders, Webber / Texas DOT. Methods and compliance: ASTM C1074 (maturity), AASHTO T-358 and ASTM C1876 (electrical resistivity), ASTM C39 (cylinder strength), TxDOT Tex-715-I (match-cure release cylinders). Mexico and Latin America: ASTM-aligned NMX (ONNCCE) standards apply, e.g. NMX-C-083 for cylinder compressive strength. Estimates only; not a quote or guarantee.

How this calculator works

How much do concrete sensors save a precast plant?

At the defaults (6 beds, 24-hour cycles, $3,200 cast per bed per cycle), the model shows roughly $294,000 per year across six lines: extra bed cycles at contribution margin, curing energy, fewer strength-decision cylinder breaks, fewer rejects, recovered QC documentation time, and cement savings from data-tuned mixes. Your number depends on your inputs; every rate is editable above.

How is this ROI calculated?

Six transparent lines, no hidden multipliers. Extra cycles: cycles/week x working weeks (operating days divided by 5, capped at 52) x bed-cycle value x margin. Steam: bed-cycles/year x energy cost per cycle x reduction. Cylinders: bed-cycles/year x sets x cost x reduction. Rejects: count x cost x reduction. QC documentation: hours/week x rate x working weeks x reduction. Cement: tons/year x cost per ton x reduction. Bed-cycles per year = beds x operating days x 24 / cycle hours. The contractor tab mirrors the same pattern: counts x costs x a visible percentage, with working weeks editable. The percentages sit next to each line and in the Refine panel.

What does the SensyHub QC Module save?

It replaces the PDFs, whiteboards, and spreadsheets behind batch logs, break logs, post-pour stickers, NCR routing, and PCI or DOT audit prep. At the default 15 QC hours per week and a $45 loaded rate with a 40% reduction, that is about $13,500 per year, before counting the audit-week crunch it removes.

How fast do concrete sensors pay for themselves?

Payback is your investment divided by monthly savings. At the defaults, roughly $294,000 per year is about $24,500 per month, so a $40,000 budget figure pays back in about 1.6 months. Enter your own investment estimate in the Refine panel and the payback badge appears next to the savings total. Pricing is quote-based; use your budget figure.
