Helping You Get More Done.
Traditional construction challenges—pour strips, wall restraint, expansion joints, backshoring and schedule delays—are a thing of the past. PS=Ø was designed by engineers who understand these trade-offs. Our revolutionary system offers a smarter, safer, and faster solution.
Accelerate Schedule
Our system is proven to accelerate schedule by up to 6 months. Even when implemented mid-project.
Reduce Project Costs
Eliminating the delays and rework caused by traditional pour strips, PS=Ø can reduce overall project costs.
Improve Jobsite Safety
Pour strips are a hazardous area of any job site. The PS=Ø System is revolutionizing the safety of these areas by eliminating the openings and exposed rebar.
Increase Efficiency
PS=Ø reduces jobsite delays, rework, and material waste. All significantly increasing jobsite efficiency. Also, the PS=Ø System adds LEED Credits.

Testimonials
PS=Ø delivers real results – cutting costs, accelerating schedule, and improving safety—but what truly sets PS=Ø apart is their team: bold innovators and relentless partners who support your project from start to finish.
Nick Muntean,
I was extremely impressed with how easy it was to install and incorporate. The PS=Ø team knew exactly what they needed from the engineers, asked for it clearly, and then took over by providing shop drawings we could implement immediately. It was simple—especially considering how stringent our structural engineering team was on this project.
Javier Landeros,
On a tight site like Encore Lot 12, PS=Ø helped us clear space fast. PS=Ø gives you a cleaner connection, less cracking risk, and a better finish — all while letting the concrete go through more natural volume change without schedule risk. It’s a smart system that makes things faster, safer, and just easier overall.
