What Is A Concrete Slab?

Concrete slabs are an important structural element that is made of cast concrete. It's flat horizontal concrete slab, commonly employed as a floor, or for a roof. To ensure long-lasting durability and years of service, contractors include welded wire mesh or reinforcing steel bars to a concrete slab that has been reinforced.

It is also essential to employ an expert calculator and supply accurate measurements. The proper thickness of the slab will influence the strength of the slab and the whole structure. The slab's thickness differs based upon the specific project. For instance, in residential flooring four inches is the usual thickness. Experts recommend 5 to 6 inches of thickness on buildings that carry heavy loads regularly.

 

Benefits of Using Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs are a well-known construction material. For years, contractors employed it to build a variety of building structures. It is a common choice to construct foundations and various development projects. Unlike other construction materials, concrete is extremely beneficial. The advantages of concrete include:

 

Durability and Longevity

There's probably not a more durable construction material that concrete. When properly cared for and maintained, it could make concrete structures last for many years. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. In addition, proper reinforcement can prolong its lifespan and increase the strength of concrete slabs. Concrete can be compacted to ensure that there aren't any gaps or porous areas in the concrete slab. Thus, reducing the probability that cracks will occur and damage could result.

 

Excellent Thermal Mass

Concrete has a large thermal mass. It refers to its capacity to regulate the flow of heat energy. Because of its high thermal mass, it is able to improve indoor comfort, and also reduce or increase indoor temperatures through taking in natural heat. Materials that have high thermal mass work especially in regions with extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has many advantages, including its resistance to many different elements. Its main advantage is its absence of organic material. So, it doesn't decline due to rotting, or corrosion due to heat. Furthermore, it is an impressive compressive strength that means that it won't break when squeezed. It is also possible to apply certain concrete treatments to concrete surfaces to increase their resistance to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another attribute that makes cement the most sought-after is its versatility. Concrete is so versatile that you can make a lot of it. Making use of different techniques and methods, you can create an attractive concrete slab using the texture, color, and pattern of your preference. You can also have experts customize it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

In contrast to other materials for construction, concrete is extremely simple to maintain. It does not require regular maintenance by a professional. You can quickly get rid of stains, dirt, as well as dust, using standard cleaning products.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

Formed concrete slabs can be described as that are made by pouring concrete directly on site. We follow a process for placing concrete on the ground so that we can guarantee substantial results. Pouring concrete provides us with the ability to make last-minute changes regarding the design of the surface. Additionally, we can modify the size of the project onsite if required. Based on its strengths, it's an ideal choice for custom concrete construction projects.

If there's a downside to this plan, it's time and cost. Since we'll be pouring a concrete slab on the ground We will require more machinery and tools like a concrete mixer and bull float. We'll also need additional workers to finish the job. Therefore, the cost for installation is much higher. Poured concrete slabs are also laborious. To cure concrete slabs alone takes up to 21 days. We will not leave you with wet concrete. We let the slabs to set so we can conduct an inspection of the quality before handing over the project. If you don't want to wait for that long then this one's for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

As the name suggests, this kind of slab is precast. The slabs are made by a manufacturer and then transported directly into the building site. Although you can customize the dimensions for the slab, making any adjustments and quick changes on-site is impossible. The slabs are not poured directly the precast slab is less expensive and takes less time to complete.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

These are concrete slabs designed with the color design or texture of your choice. We are also able to create a custom design for your slabs according to your personal preferences. This is only possible in the event that you opt for our slabs made of concrete. Otherwise, it's very difficult to design or style you desire.
