What is a Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab is an essential structural element composed of concrete cast. This is an elongated horizontal concrete surface , which is often used as a floor and for a roof. For long-lasting and durable of performance, contractors can add welding wire mesh or reinforcing steel bars to a concrete slab that has been reinforced.

Furthermore, it is necessary to have an expert calculate and provide the right measurements. The proper thickness of the slab will influence the strength of the slab as well the entire structure. The thickness of the slab varies based on the building. For example, in residential flooring four inches is the usual thickness. Experts recommend 5 to 6 inches of thickness when building that have heavy load loads regularly.

 

Benefits of Concrete Slabs

Concrete slabs are a popular construction material. For years, contractors employed it to construct a variety of construction structures. It is an extremely popular option to build foundations and other projects. As opposed to other building materials concrete is so advantageous. Its advantages include:

 

Durability and longevity

There's no more durable construction material than concrete. Proper care and upkeep will ensure that concrete structures last for a long time. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Correct reinforcement can extend the life span and strength of concrete slabs. We can compress concrete in such a way that there aren't the appearance of voids or porous regions within the concrete slab. This reduces the risk that cracks will occur and damage could result.

 

Fantastic Thermal Mass

Concrete has a great thermal mass, which relates to its ability to manage the flow of energy. Because of its thermal mass, it's capable of helping regulate comfort in the indoor environment and reduce or raise indoor temperatures by absorbing natural heat. Materials with high thermal mass are useful in locations with extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete offers many advantages, among them its resistance different elements. Its main advantage is its absence of organic material. Therefore, it does not decay due to rotting or the burning of metals caused by excessive heat. It also has significant compressive strength, which signifies that it will not fracture when squeezed. It's also possible to apply specific concrete treatment on concrete surfaces to give them a better resistance to chemical staining and spills.

 

Flexibility

Another aspect that makes concrete the most sought-after is its versatility. Concrete is so versatile that it's possible to make a lot of it. Employing various methods and applications that allow you to make an concrete slab that has the texture, color or pattern you would like. Experts can help you design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Unlike other construction materials, concrete is simple to maintain. Concrete does not require frequent maintenance from a professional. You can effortlessly get rid of dirt, stains and dust by using basic cleaning products.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

Poured concrete slabs are slabs made by pouring the concrete on the spot. The process we follow is creating concrete on the location to ensure we get significant results. Concrete installation gives us flexibility to make any last-minute adjustments on the design and layout of the surface. It also lets us modify the size of the project on site if required. Because of its capabilities, it makes a perfect choice for concrete projects that can be customized.

If there's one downside to this plan, it's the time and expense. Since we'll pour a concrete slab over the site and require additional instruments and equipment, for instance, the use of a concrete mixer or a bull floating. Additionally, we'll need extra workers to complete the work. Also, the installation price is more expensive. Concrete slabs that are poured are long-lasting. To cure concrete slabs alone can take up to 21 days. The slabs are not left with concrete that is wet. We wait for the slabs to cure so we can do one final quality inspection before handing over the project. If you're unwilling to sit for that long then this option is ideal for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

The name implies that this type of slab is precast. The slabs will be manufactured in a manufacturing facility and then delivered straight for the build site. However, you can tailor the dimensions of the slabbut making adjustments and quick changes on-site is impossible. Instead of being poured directly in the slab, precast costs less money and takes less time to complete.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

decorative concrete slabs are slabs of concrete that have the color, design or design of your choice. We are also able to create a custom design for your slabs, depending on the style you prefer. This is only possible should you select our concrete slabs poured service. Otherwise, it will be impossible to achieve the look or style you'd like to achieve.
