What Is A Concrete Slab?

Concrete slabs are a popular structural element made of concrete cast. It's a flat, horizontal concrete surface which is typically used as a floor and a roof. In order to guarantee durability and years of performance, contractors add reinforced steel bars to a concrete slab that has been reinforced.

It is also essential that you have an expert calculate and supply accurate measurements. The correct thickness will have an impact on the integrity of your slab as well as the overall structure. The thickness of the slab varies based on the building. For example, in residential flooring, four inches is the norm thickness. Experts suggest five to six inches of thickness for buildings that are regularly subject to heavy loads.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

A concrete slab is one of the most sought-after construction materials. Over the years, builders have employed it to construct a variety of construction structures. It's a typical choice for foundations and other development projects. In contrast to other building materials, concrete has so many advantages. Its advantages include:

 

Durability and longevity

There is no more robust construction material than concrete. The proper care and maintenance can allow concrete structures to last for a long time. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Correct reinforcement can extend the longevity and durability of concrete slabs. We can compact concrete so that there aren't any voids or areas of porous material in this concrete slab. Thus, reducing the chances for cracks as well as other damages.

 

Fantastic Thermal Mass

Concrete has a substantial thermal mass, which refers to its ability to regulate the flow of heat energy. Due to its thermal mass, it can manage indoor comfort and lower or increase the temperature of indoor spaces by absorbing natural heat. Materials with high thermal mass are useful in areas that experience extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has many advantages in particular its resistance to various elements. One of them is the absence of organic material. It therefore does not become degraded due to rotting or corrosion due to heat. Furthermore, it is an impressive compressive strength that signifies that it will not fracture when squeezed. Additionally, we can apply specific concrete treatments on concrete surfaces for them to be more resistant to chemical staining and spills.

 

Flexibility

Another quality that makes concrete extremely popular is its versatility. It is so adaptable that it's easy to make lots of it. Making use of different techniques and methods you can make a concrete slab in the texture, color and pattern of your preference. The experts can custom design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

In contrast to other construction materials concrete is simple to maintain. It doesn't require routine maintenance from a professional. You can easily get rid of dirt, stains and dust using a few basic cleaning products.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

A concrete slab that has been poured is made by pouring the concrete on site. There is a method we use for placing concrete on the ground, ensuring we deliver significant outcomes. The process of pouring concrete allows us the liberty to make last minute changes in the design of our surface. It also allows us to modify the size of the work on the spot if needed. Given its qualities, it is a great choice for projects made of concrete that are custom-designed.

If there's any downside to this, it's the time and expense. Since we'll be pouring a concrete slab at the site that requires more instruments and equipment, for instance, the use of a concrete mixer or a bull float. We'll also need many more workers to perform the work. Thus, the expense of installing is more expensive. Poured concrete slabs are costly to install. To cure concrete slabs alone can take as long as 21 days. The slabs are not left with concrete that is still wet. We wait for the slabs to set so we can conduct a quality check before turning over the project. Unless you are willing to sit for that long then this project isn't for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

As the name suggests, this kind of slab is precast. The slabs are made in a facility before being shipped straight into the building site. Although you have the option of modifying the size for the slab, making any adjustments or last-minute changes onsite is impossible. In contrast to slabs that are poured directly, precast costs less and requires less time.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs with decorative designs are which are crafted with the color pattern or style you would like. We are also able to customize a design for your slabs, depending on your preference. This service is only available if you choose our concrete slabs that are poured. If not, it's difficult to create the design or look you're after.
