What is a Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab is the most popular structural element made of concrete cast. It is a flat, horizontal concrete slab that is used for flooring or for a roof. In order to guarantee durability and years of performance, contractors add the wire mesh that is welded or reinforced steel bars to the concrete slab they have reinforced.

Also, it's important for an expert to calculate and take the proper measurements. Having the right thickness will alter the strength of slab as well the entire structure. The slab's thickness varies depending on the construction. For instance, in residential floor construction, 4 inches is a standard thickness. Experts recommend five to six inches for buildings which are subject to frequent heavy loads.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

A concrete slab is one of the most popular construction materials. For a long time, contractors have constructed a variety of construction structures. Concrete is the most popular choice to build foundations and other projects. Unlike other construction materials, concrete is incredibly beneficial. Its benefits include:

 

Durability and long-term durability

There's not a more robust construction material than concrete. With proper care and maintenance, you can ensure that concrete structures last for many years. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Correct reinforcement can extend the life of and the strength of concrete slabs. We can compact concrete so that we do not have any pores or voids in the concrete slab. This reduces the risk that cracks will occur and damage could result.

 

Fantastic Thermal Mass

Concrete has a high thermal mass, which refers to its capacity to regulate the flow of heat energy. Because of its thermal mass, it's able to help regulate indoor comfort as well as reduce or increase the temperature inside by absorption of natural heat. Materials with great thermal mass are beneficial to those who live in areas of extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete offers many advantages, that include its resistance against many different elements. The most notable is the lack of organic matter. It therefore does not fall apart due to rotting nor an excessive amount of heat that causes rust. In addition, it has quite a strong compressive force that means it will not fracture when squeezed. It's also possible to apply specific concrete treatment on concrete surfaces so that they are more resistant to chemical staining and spills.

 

Flexibility

Another characteristic that makes concrete extremely popular is its versatility. Concrete is so flexible that it's easy to make lots of it. Employing various methods and applications it is possible to create a concrete slab with the texture, color as well as the pattern you prefer. Experts can help you design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Unlike other construction materials, concrete is simple to maintain. It does not need regular maintenance or care from a professional. You can effortlessly get rid of stains, dirt, and dust by using common cleaning products.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs that are poured made by pouring concrete on the spot. We follow a procedure for installing concrete on site to ensure we get significant results. Pouring concrete gives us ability to make last-minute changes to the appearance of the surface. Also, it allows us to modify the size of the construction site when it is required. Given its qualities, it's a fantastic choice for customized concrete projects.

If there's one downside to this plan, it's time and cost. Because we are pouring a concrete slab over the site that requires more tools and equipment like cement mixers and a bull floating. There will also be a need for more workers to complete the work. The installation cost is much higher. Concrete slabs that are poured are lengthy. For a concrete slab to cure on its own, it can take up to 21 days. We do not leave with concrete that is still wet. We allow the slabs ' to cure so we can do some quality checks before turning over the project. If you're willing to endure that much time, then this option is ideal for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

The name says it all, the slabs are precast. The slabs are manufactured in a plant and shipped straight at the place of work. You can however customize the size and shape of your slabs, making changes or last-minute changes onsite is impossible. Different from the ones that are poured directly that are precast, it costs less and takes less time to complete.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs with decorative design are created with the color design or pattern of your choice. You can also design a pattern for your slabs according to your preferences. This service is available only in the event that you opt for our concrete slabs that are poured. If you don't, it's difficult to create the style or style you want.
