What Is A Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab refers to an essential structural element composed of concrete cast. It's flat, horizontal concrete surface commonly employed as a floor, or for a roof. To ensure longevity and years of service, contractors include reinforced steel bars to the concrete slab they have reinforced.

In addition, it is crucial for an expert to calculate and present accurate measurements. A proper thickness will affect the integrity of the slab and also the overall structure. The slab's thickness is dependent on the structure. For example, for residential floor construction 4 inches is the standard thickness. Experts recommend 5 to 6 inches of thickness to build carrying heavy loads often.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

A concrete slab is one of the most popular construction materials. Over the years, builders have used it to construct various construction structures. It is an extremely popular option for foundations and other construction projects. It is different from other construction materials because concrete is an excellent choice. The advantages of concrete include:

 

Longevity, Durability, and Durability

There may not be a more durable construction material than concrete. Maintenance and proper care will ensure that concrete structures last for a long time. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Correct reinforcement can extend the lifespan and toughness of concrete slabs. We can compress concrete to the point that there aren't gaps or pores in the slab of concrete. Thus, reducing the chances of cracking and other damages.

 

Excellent Thermal Mass

Concrete is known for its high thermal mass. It refers to its ability to regulate the flow of thermal energy. Due to its thermal mass adjust indoor comfort levels and reduce or increase temperatures in the indoor space by absorbing natural heat. Materials with large thermal mass can be beneficial especially in regions with extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete offers many advantages, among them its resistance various elements. Of these is its lack of organic matter. Therefore, it is unable to degrade because of rotting or corrosion due to heat. Furthermore, it has very high compressive strengths that means that it won't break when squeezed. We also can apply concrete treatments on concrete surfaces to give them a better resistance to chemical staining and spills.

 

Flexibility

Another aspect that makes concrete so popular is its ability to be used in a variety of ways. Concrete is so versatile you can create a variety of it. Making use of different techniques and methods you can make a concrete slab that is the texture, color and design that you prefer. Experts can help you design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Like other construction materials concrete is very easy to maintain. It does not require regular cleaning by a professional. It is simple to get rid of stains, dirt, as well as dust, using standard cleaning materials.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

Formed concrete slabs can be described as formed by pouring cement on site. The process we follow is setting up concrete on site to ensure we get significant outcomes. The process of pouring concrete allows us the ability to make last-minute changes to the design of the surface. Additionally, we can alter the dimensions of the project in the field if needed. With its features, it is a great choice for customized concrete projects.

If there's a drawback to this, it's the time and expense. Because we will pour a concrete slab on the spot we will need additional tools and equipment like mixing concrete and a bull float. There will also be a need for an additional workforce to do the work. Also, the installation price is higher. Concrete slabs with poured concrete are laborious. For a concrete slab to cure on its own, it could take up to 21 calendar days. We don't leave with concrete that is still wet. We allow the slabs to set so we can conduct one final quality inspection before handing over the project. If you're not ready the time to wait, this project is for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

As the name suggests, this type of slab is precast. The slabs are produced in a factory before being delivered straight towards the location of the project. Although you can personalize the dimensions in the slab, making adjustments or last-minute changes onsite is impossible. Like the slabs you pour directly, precast costs less and requires less time.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

These are concrete slabs of concrete that have the color, design or pattern of your choice. Also, we can create a pattern for your slabs according to the design you like. This service is available only when you select our slabs made of concrete. Otherwise, it will be impossible to achieve the look or look you're after.
