What is Concrete Slab?

Concrete slabs are a common structural component made out of cast concrete. It's flat, horizontal concrete surface , which is often used as a flooring or for a roof. To ensure the durability and longevity of performance, contractors add welding wire mesh or reinforcing steel bars to a concrete slab that has been reinforced.

In addition, it is crucial to hire an expert calculation and make the correct measurements. A proper thickness will impact the integrity of the slab as well as the overall structure. The slab's thickness is dependent on the design. For instance, in residential flooring 4 inches is the standard thickness. Experts recommend 5 to 6 inches of thickness for buildings that carry heavy loads regularly.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

Concrete slabs are a popular construction material. For years, contractors have utilized it to construct various building structures. It is a common choice for foundations and other development projects. Contrary to other construction materials, concrete has a lot of advantages. The advantages of concrete include:

 

Durability and Longevity

There's probably no more durable construction material that concrete. A proper maintenance and care makes concrete structures last for many years. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Effective reinforcement is also able to extend the lifespan and robustness of concrete slabs. We can compact concrete to ensure that there aren't no voids or porous zones in the slab of concrete. So, reducing the likelihood for cracks as well as other damages.

 

Excellent Thermal Mass

Concrete has a very high thermal mass. This refers to its capacity to regulate the flow and distribution of thermal energy. Because of its high thermal mass, it can improve indoor comfort, and also reduce or increase indoor temperatures by absorbing natural heat. Materials with significant thermal mass are ideal especially in regions with extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has numerous advantages, in particular its resistance to different elements. In addition, it lacks of organic material. Thus, it will not decay due to rotting or the rusting that is caused by heat. In addition, it has quite a strong compressive force, which means it isn't likely to break when squeezed. You can also apply concrete treatment on concrete surfaces so that they are more resistant to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another attribute that makes cement famous is its flexibility. Concrete is extremely flexible, you can create a variety of it. Utilizing a variety of methods and techniques it is possible to create an concrete slab that has the color, texture, and pattern that you want. You can also have experts customize it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Like other construction materials concrete is incredibly simple to maintain. It doesn't require regular cleaning by a professional. It is easy to get rid of stains, dirt, and dust by using basic cleaning supplies.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

In the case of Poured Concrete, they are created by pouring a concrete slab on site. We follow a procedure for making concrete at the site in order to deliver impressive results. Pouring concrete provides us with the flexibility to make changes to the appearance of the surface. It also permits us to adjust the size of the construction site when it is required. With its features, it is a great choice to build concrete projects with a custom design.

If there's a negative to this, it's time and cost. Since we'll have to pour a concrete slab to the location that requires more equipment and tools, such as an electric mixer for concrete as well as a bull float. We'll also need more people to perform the work. This means that the installation cost is higher. Poured concrete slabs are laborious. To cure concrete slabs alone takes between 21 and 21 days. We don't leave you with concrete that is wet. We let concrete slabs to cure so we can conduct an inspection before turning over the project. Unless you are willing to be patient, then this option is ideal for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

The name implies that this kind of slab is precast. The slabs can be made by a manufacturer and then transported straight at the place of work. Although you can customize the size that the slab is made, making modifications and last-minute changes onsite is impossible. Unlike the ones poured directly they are less costly and requires less time.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

decorative concrete slabs are slabs designed with the color pattern, or texture of your preference. We are also able to customize a design for your slabs, according to the design you like. This application is available only if you choose the concrete slab services we offer. If not, it's impossible to achieve the look or style you desire.
