What is a concrete slab?

A concrete slab refers to a popular structural element made of cast concrete. It is a flat horizontal concrete surface utilized as a floor or as a roof. To ensure long-term durability and years of use, contractors may add an welded wire mesh or steel bars to a reinforced concrete slab.

In addition, it is crucial to hire an expert calculation and provide the right measurements. Having the right thickness will affect the quality of the slab as well as the overall structure. The slab's thickness is dependent on the building. For example, in residential flooring 4 inches is the standard thickness. Experts recommend 5 to 6 inches of thickness when building with heavy loads regularly.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

Concrete slabs are a popular construction material. Over the years, builders have used it to construct various construction structures. Concrete is a well-known choice for foundations , as well as other development projects. It is different from other construction materials because concrete is incredibly beneficial. Its advantages are:

 

Durability and long-term durability

There is no more durable construction material that concrete. The proper care and maintenance can make concrete structures last for decades. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Reinforcements that are properly done can also extend the durability and lifespan of concrete slabs. We can make concrete compact so that there aren't no voids or porous zones in the concrete slab. Therefore, it reduces the chance for cracks as well as other damages.

 

Excellent Thermal Mass

Concrete has a high thermal mass, which relates to its ability to control the flow energy. Because of its large thermal mass, it can control indoor comfort and decrease or increase temperatures in the indoor space by absorbing natural heat. Materials with great thermal mass are beneficial to those who live in areas of extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has many advantages, including its resistance to many various elements. This includes its absence of organic material. Therefore, it is unable to degrade because of rotting or the rusting that is caused by heat. Furthermore, it has an extremely high compressive strength that is why it doesn't break when squeezed. You can also apply concrete treatments on concrete surfaces to make them more resistant to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another factor that makes concrete well-known is its flexibility. Concrete is a material that is flexible enough that you can do a lot of it. Using different methods and applications you can make a concrete slab with the texture, color and design of your choice. You can even have experts create it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

In contrast to other construction materials concrete is simple to maintain. It doesn't require routine upkeep by a professional. You can easily rid yourself of stains, dirt, and dust by using common cleaning materials.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

They are slabs made by pouring concrete on the site. The process we follow is placing concrete on the spot which guarantees us to provide significant results. Pouring concrete provides us with the ability to make last-minute changes on the design and layout of the surface. It also lets us alter the dimensions of the job on site if it is required. Its advantages mean that it is a great choice for custom concrete projects.

If there's a downside to this, it's time and cost. Because we are pouring a concrete slab over the site We will require more tools and equipment like the use of a concrete mixer or a bull floating. We'll also need additional workers to finish the job. The installation cost is higher. Poured concrete slabs are difficult to work with. For a concrete slab to cure on its own, it is a process that can take up to 21 working days. The slabs are not left with wet concrete. We let the slabs ' to cure so we can perform a quality check before turning over the project. If you're unwilling to wait that long we'd recommend this for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

The name says it all, this type of slab is precast. The slabs are created in a factory before being delivered straight on to construction sites. Though you can alter the size of the slabbut making adjustments and urgent changes on the job is impossible. Like the slabs you pour directly Precast is cheaper and takes less time to complete.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

decorative concrete slabs are slabs built with the color design, or texture you want. We are also able to customize a pattern to your slabs based on your preference. The application is only available should you select our poured concrete slab services. In other cases, it could be difficult to get the design or look you're after.
