What is Concrete Slab?

Concrete slabs are a popular structural element made from cast concrete. It is a flat, vertical concrete surface typically used for floors or roofing. In order to guarantee durability and years of service, contractors include an unwelded wire mesh or reinforcement steel bars to the concrete slab they have reinforced.

Furthermore, it is necessary to have an expert calculate and supply accurate measurements. A proper thickness will impact the strength of the slab and the entire structure. The slab's size varies depending on the particular project. For instance, in residential flooring 4 inches is the most common thickness. Experts suggest five to six inches of thickness to build that carry heavy loads regularly.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

A concrete slab is an extremely popular construction material. For decades, contractors have employed it to construct a variety of building structures. It is a common choice for foundations and other development projects. Contrary to other construction materials, concrete is extremely beneficial. Its advantages include:

 

Longevity and durability

There's not a more durable construction material than concrete. If properly maintained and cared for, it can make concrete structures last for many years. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. A proper reinforcement will also increase the durability and lifespan of concrete slabs. We can make concrete compact so that we do not have no voids or porous zones in the slab of concrete. Thus, reducing the probability of cracks or other damages.

 

Excellent Thermal Mass

Concrete is characterized by its high thermal mass, which refers to its capacity to regulate the flow of heat energy. Because of its thermal mass, it is able to help regulate indoor comfort as well as reduce or increase the temperature of indoor spaces by absorption of natural heat. Materials that have great thermal mass are beneficial in locations with extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has many advantages, among them its resistance various elements. The most notable is the lack of organic matter. Therefore, it is unable to fall apart due to rotting nor the rusting that is caused by heat. It also has quite a strong compressive force that means it will not fracture when squeezed. We also can apply concrete treatments to concrete surfaces so that they are more resistant to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another thing that makes concrete popular is its versatility. Concrete is very flexible and it's possible to do lots of it. By using a variety methods and tools that allow you to make an attractive concrete slab using the texture, color and pattern that you want. Experts can help you design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Contrary to other construction materials concrete is very simple to maintain. Concrete does not require frequent upkeep by a professional. You can easily get rid of dirt, stains and dust using the most basic cleaning supplies.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

They are created by pouring concrete over site. The process we follow is pouring concrete onto the surface which ensures that we can deliver substantial outcomes. Concrete installation gives us flexibility to make changes on the design and layout of the surface. Also, it allows us to alter the dimensions of the project in the field if necessary. Due to its characteristics, it makes a perfect choice to build concrete projects with a custom design.

If there's any downside to this, it's time and cost. Since we'll have to pour a concrete slab on the site and require additional tools and equipment like a concrete mixer and bull float. Additionally, we'll need more people to perform the work. Thus, the installation cost is much higher. Concrete slabs that have been poured are very time-consuming. The process of curing concrete slabs on their own takes about 21 days. We do not leave you with wet concrete. We wait for the slabs to cure so we can conduct one final quality inspection before handing over the work. If you're not willing to wait for that long then this project isn't for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

The name says it all, this slab type is precast. The slabs can be made in a manufacturing facility and then delivered straight towards the location of the project. While you are able to customize the dimensions for the slab, making any adjustments or final-minute changes on the spot isn't possible. Contrary to the slabs poured directly they are less costly and requires less time.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

decorative concrete slabs are slabs built with the color pattern or the texture you prefer. We also can customize a layout for your slabs according to your preferences. This option is only available in the event that you opt for our concrete slabs that are poured. In the absence of this, it can be difficult to create the style or style that you prefer.
