Filigree Concrete System (Seminar topic- urgent help!)

Can someone please explain the construction process for a filigree precast concrete system. What are the unique advantages of this system over other concrete system?
I would like to stress on this point...Filigree system uses pour-in-place concrete as finishing layer, won't it require proper curing period like traditional cast-in-place? One of the research materials i got state that a floor can be complete in 3 to 4 days using Filigree method.

Can someone please, please explain and clarify?
Much appreciated 😀

    This is not in my area of work. We used to work on fabric reinforced resin composites for other applications in the early seventies. Out of curiosity we did try some fabric reinforced cement composites. Normal cement curing times were used for this. No civil engineering applications were attempted.

    Please see if any of these are useful.

    Thank you very much for your help but unfortunately this is not exactly what I'm looking for.

    What I am really concerned about is how this method accelerates the overall construction process as opposed to the traditional cast-in-place method.
