What is a Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab is the most popular structural element made of concrete cast. The slab is flat horizontal concrete slab that is used as a floor and a roof. To ensure durability and years of service, contractors include an unwelded wire mesh or reinforcement steel bars to a reinforced concrete slab.

In addition, it is crucial for an expert to calculate and supply accurate measurements. A properly measured thickness will impact the strength of the slab and also the overall structure. The slab's thickness is dependent on the project. For instance, in residential floor construction, 4 inches is the typical thickness. Experts recommend 5 to 6 inches of thickness in buildings that are regularly subject to heavy loads.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

Concrete slabs are a popular construction material. For a long time, contractors have used it to build various building structures. It is a preferred choice for foundations , as well as other development projects. Contrary to other construction materials, concrete is an excellent choice. Concrete's advantages include:

 

Longevity, Durability, and Durability

There's probably no more robust construction material than concrete. A proper maintenance and care will ensure that concrete structures last for decades. 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 to ensure that there aren't many voids, or porous spaces in the concrete slab. Thus, reducing the probability of cracking and other damages.

 

Fantastic Thermal Mass

Concrete has a high thermal mass. It refers to its ability to regulate the flow of thermal energy. Because of its thermal mass, it is able to adjust indoor comfort levels and reduce and increase indoor temperatures by taking in natural heat. Materials with high thermal mass work for areas that have extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has numerous advantages, like its resistance various elements. This includes its absence of organic matter. Therefore, it is unable to fall apart due to rotting nor an excessive amount of heat that causes rust. Additionally, it has significant compressive strength, which means it will not break when squeezed. We can also apply concrete treatments to concrete surfaces to help them resist to chemical staining and spills.

 

Flexibility

Another attribute that makes cement the most sought-after is its versatility. Concrete is so flexible that you can make a lot of it. With a variety of techniques and applications one can build a concrete slab that is the texture, color and pattern you like. Experts can design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

In contrast to other materials for construction, concrete is easy to maintain. It doesn't require routine maintenance by a professional. It is easy to get rid of dirt, stains and dust by using common cleaning products.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

In the case of Poured Concrete, they are slabs created by pouring concrete on the site. We follow a particular procedure for placing concrete on the spot to ensure we get significant results. Pouring concrete gives us the flexibility to make last-minute tweaks in the design of our surface. Also, it allows us to alter the dimensions of the construction site when required. Its advantages mean that it's a fantastic choice for custom concrete construction projects.

If there's an issue to this plan, it's the time and expense. Since we'll be pouring a concrete slab at the site that requires more devices and tools, including one concrete mixer, and a bull floating. Also, we will require many more workers to perform the work. The installation cost is more expensive. Poured concrete slabs can be difficult to work with. A concrete slab that is cured on its own takes up to 21 days. We do not leave with concrete that is still wet. We let concrete slabs to cure so we can do an inspection of the quality before handing over the work. If you're willing the time to wait, then this option is ideal for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

The name implies that the slabs are precast. The slabs are produced in a plant and shipped directly at the place of work. Although you can customize the size of the slab, making adjustments or last-minute changes onsite is impossible. Unlike the ones poured directly they are less costly and is also less time-consuming.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

decorative concrete slabs are slabs which are crafted with the color design, or the texture you prefer. They can also be customized with a design for your slabs, according to your preferences. This is only possible if you choose our slabs made of concrete. Otherwise, it will be difficult to create the style or design you'd like.
