What is a concrete slab?

A concrete slab refers to a popular structural element made of cast concrete. A concrete slab can be described as a smooth vertical concrete surface typically employed as a floor, or roofing. To ensure the durability and longevity of efficiency, contractors will add the wire mesh that is welded or reinforced steel bars to a reinforced concrete slab.

Meanwhile, it is essential for an expert to calculate and provide proper measurements. A properly measured thickness will influence the structural integrity of the slab and the whole structure. The slab's thickness differs based on the type of project. For instance, in the case of residential floor construction, 4 inches is the recommended thickness. Experts recommend 5 to 6 inches of thickness to build that are regularly subject to heavy loads.

 

Benefits of Using Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs are a very popular construction material. For years, contractors have constructed a variety of building structures. Concrete is the most popular choice to build foundations and other projects. Contrary to other construction materials, concrete has a lot of advantages. Its advantages are:

 

Longevity and Durability

There's not a more sturdy construction material than concrete. Care and maintenance could make concrete structures last for many years. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Reinforcements that are properly done can also extend the lifespan and robustness of concrete slabs. Concrete can be compacted so that we do not have any pores or voids in this concrete slab. This reduces the risk of cracks or other damages.

 

Excellent Thermal Mass

Concrete has a great thermal mass. This refers to its capacity to regulate the flow and distribution of thermal energy. Because of its large thermal mass, it is able to improve indoor comfort, and also reduce or increase temperatures in the indoor space by absorption of natural heat. Materials with high thermal mass are beneficial in places with extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has many advantages, which include its resistance to different elements. For instance, it is devoid of organic material. It therefore does not decline due to rotting, or burning caused by extreme heat. It also has a high compressive strength that means it will not fracture when squeezed. It is also possible to apply certain concrete treatments on concrete surfaces to help them resist to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another thing that makes concrete famous is its flexibility. The material is so flexible it's possible to do lots of it. Through a variety or methods the possibility of creating a concrete slab that is the texture, color, and design that you prefer. You can also have experts customize it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Contrary to other building materials, concrete is extremely simple to maintain. It does not require regular maintenance from a professional. You can easily rid yourself of stains, dirt, and dust with the help of basic cleaning products.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

These are constructed by pouring concrete onto the ground. We follow a method for placing concrete on the spot which ensures that we can deliver substantial results. Concrete installation gives us flexibility to make any last-minute adjustments regarding the design of the surface. Additionally, we can modify the size of the project at the site, if required. Given its qualities, it's the ideal option to build concrete projects with a custom design.

If there's one downside to this, it's the time and expense. Since we pour a concrete slab to the location and require additional instruments and equipment, for instance, an electric mixer for concrete as well as a bull float. Additionally, we'll require extra workers to complete the work. Therefore, the cost of installation is more expensive. Poured concrete slabs are also very time-consuming. To cure concrete slab alone can take up to 21 days. We do not leave you with concrete that is wet. We allow the slabs ' to cure so we can do an inspection to ensure the quality before turning over the project. If you're not ready to endure that much time, then this project is perfect for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

As the name suggests, this kind of slab is precast. The slabs are manufactured at a factory, and then shipped directly into the building site. While you are able to customize the dimensions or thickness of the slabs however making adjustments and urgent changes on the job is impossible. Like the slabs you pour directly in the slab, precast costs less money and takes less time.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs that are decorative are built with the color pattern or design of your choice. Also, we can create a style for your slabs in accordance with your preference. This application is available only if you choose our slabs made of concrete. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to design or style that you prefer.
