What is a Concrete Slab?

Concrete slabs are a structural feature that is commonly made of cast concrete. It's a flat, horizontal concrete surface that is commonly employed as a floor, or for a roof. For durability and to ensure years of performance, contractors can add an welded wire mesh or steel bars to the concrete slab they have reinforced.

It is also essential to hire an expert calculation and provide proper measurements. Having the right thickness will influence the strength of the slab as well the entire structure. The thickness of the slab will differ based on the structure. For instance, in residential floor construction, 4 inches is a standard thickness. Experts recommend five to six inches for buildings that have heavy load loads regularly.

 

Benefits of Concrete Slabs

A concrete slab is a very popular construction material. For a long time, contractors employed it for the construction of various construction structures. It is an extremely popular option for foundations , as well as other development projects. Different from other construction materials concrete is incredibly beneficial. Its advantages are:

 

Durability and longevity

There's probably not a more robust construction material than concrete. Maintenance and proper care will allow concrete structures to last for a long time. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Proper reinforcement can also prolong its lifespan and increase the strength of concrete slabs. We can compact concrete so that there aren't any pores or voids within the concrete slab. So, reducing the likelihood of cracks, and other damage.

 

Fantastic Thermal Mass

Concrete has a high thermal mass. This refers to its ability to regulate the flow or flow of thermal energy. Because of its high thermal mass, it can improve indoor comfort, and also reduce or increase the temperature of indoor spaces by taking in natural heat. Materials with large thermal mass can be beneficial in areas that experience extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete offers many advantages, including its resistance to many various elements. This includes its absence of organic matter. Therefore, it cannot degrade because of rotting or the burning of metals caused by excessive heat. It also has significant compressive strength that signifies that it will not fracture when squeezed. There are also specific concrete treatments on concrete surfaces to help them resist to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another quality that makes concrete famous is its flexibility. Concrete is extremely flexible, you can create a variety of it. Utilizing a variety of methods and techniques for creating a concrete slab that is the texture, color, or pattern you would like. Experts can design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

In contrast to other construction materials concrete is extremely simple to maintain. It doesn't require routine maintenance or care from a professional. It is simple to get rid of stains, dirt, and dust by using common cleaning supplies.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs that are poured slabs made by pouring concrete on the spot. The process we follow is creating concrete on the location which guarantees us to provide significant outcomes. Pouring concrete provides us with the ability to make last-minute changes to the layout of the surface. Additionally, we can modify the size of the project on site if it is required. Its advantages mean that it's a fantastic choice for projects made of concrete that are custom-designed.

If there's a negative to this plan, it's the time and expense. Since we'll be pouring concrete slab on the ground the site, we require more devices and tools, including an electric mixer for concrete as well as a bull float. Additionally, we'll require more people to do the work. Therefore, the cost of installation is much more expensive. Poured concrete slabs are also very time-consuming. To cure concrete slab alone takes about 21 days. We don't leave you with concrete that is still wet. We allow the slabs ' to cure, so we can perform one final quality inspection before handing over the work. Unless you are willing to wait for that long then this one's for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

The name says it all, this slab type is precast. They are manufactured at a factory and are then shipped straight to the construction site. Even though you can modify the dimensions of the slab, making adjustments and any last-minute adjustments on site is not possible. Like the slabs you pour directly as precasts, precast costs less and requires less time.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs for decorative purposes are designed with the color pattern, or design of your choice. We are also able to customize a layout for your slabs according to your personal preferences. This feature is only available if you choose our concrete slab service. If you don't, it's impossible to achieve the look or style you want.
