When assembled, this precast concrete slab will hold the foot into a large plate and insert itself into three dimensions. The prefabricated concrete panels now act as a soft key to master the movements of the building.

Thanks to these advantages and new features, when assembling on soft ground these precast concrete panels also move along the ground surface, the bonding is not destroyed and does not form gaps, the building is covered.

Currently, this invention has been applied in the construction of embankments to prevent erosion of Tien river in Hong Ngu town (Dong Thap) and to handle two heads of Den Do district of Go Cong Dong district (Tien Giang).

Besides, it is also used for embankments to prevent erosion of rivers and seas in weak areas, this three-dimensional self-insertion concrete plate is also suitable for paving roofs, paving of irrigation, agricultural and aquatic works, and assigning pine, mountain .
