What Is A Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab is the most popular structural element made of cast concrete. It's flat horizontal concrete slab, commonly used as a floor and a roof. To ensure long-lasting durability and years of use, contractors may add steel mesh wire or steel bars to a reinforced concrete slab.

In addition, it is crucial to have an expert calculate and take the proper measurements. The proper thickness of the slab will impact the strength of the slab and also the overall structure. The slab's thickness differs based on the design. For example, in residential floor construction four inches is the norm thickness. Experts recommend 5 to 6 inches of thickness for construction that carry heavy loads regularly.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

A concrete slab is one of the most popular construction materials. For years, contractors have employed it to construct a variety of construction structures. It is a preferred choice for foundations and other construction projects. Like other construction materials concrete is incredibly beneficial. The advantages of concrete include:

 

Durability and long-term durability

There may not be a more robust construction material than concrete. When properly cared for and maintained, it will allow concrete structures to last for decades. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Good reinforcement also increases its lifespan and increase the strength of concrete slabs. We can make concrete compact so that there aren't any voids or areas of porous material in the concrete slab. Thus, reducing the risk of cracks and other damage.

 

Excellent Thermal Mass

Concrete is characterized by its high thermal mass. This refers to its capacity to regulate the flow of heat energy. Because of its thermal mass, it can manage indoor comfort and lower or raise indoor temperatures by absorbing natural heat. Materials that have great thermal mass are beneficial in places with extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has many advantages for example, its resistance to different elements. Among them is its lack of organic material. Therefore, it cannot fall apart due to rotting nor the formation of rust due to excessive heat. Additionally, it has an extremely high compressive strength that ensures it will not crack when squeezed. You can also apply concrete treatments on concrete surfaces to make them more resistant to chemical staining and spills.

 

Flexibility

Another characteristic that makes concrete very popular is its versatility. It is so adaptable that it's possible to do lots of it. With a variety of techniques and applications that allow you to make concrete slabs in the texture, color and pattern that you want. Experts can design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

As opposed to other construction materials concrete is incredibly simple to maintain. It doesn't require regular cleaning by a professional. You can get rid of dirt, stains and dust with basic cleaning supplies.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

Poured concrete slabs are made by pouring concrete on the spot. We follow a particular procedure for making concrete at the site, which allows us to guarantee significant results. The process of pouring concrete allows us the flexibility to make changes to the appearance of the surface. It also permits us to modify the size of the job on site if required. Because of its capabilities, it is a great choice for projects made of concrete that are custom-designed.

If there's any downside to this plan, it's the time and expense. Since we'll be pouring a concrete slab on the spot that requires more instruments and equipment, for instance, mixing concrete and a bull float. We will also need an additional workforce to do the work. This means that the installation cost is much more expensive. Concrete slabs poured in a concrete mix are difficult to work with. A concrete slab that is cured on its own lasts up to 21 days. It is not our intention to leave you with concrete that is still wet. We wait for the slabs ' to cure, so we can perform a quality check before turning over the work. If you're willing to wait that long, then this is the one for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

The name implies that this slab type is precast. These slabs are constructed by a manufacturer and then transported straight at the place of work. While you are able to customize the size and shape of your slabs, making changes or necessary changes at the last minute is not possible. Different from the ones that are poured directly Precast is cheaper and requires less time.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

These are concrete slabs built with the color pattern or design you like. We also can customize a layout for your slabs according to your personal preferences. This application is available only should you select our concrete slabs poured service. In other cases, it could be hard to achieve the look or style you'd like to achieve.
