What is a concrete slab?

A concrete slab refers to an essential structural element composed out of cast concrete. This is an elongated horizontal concrete surface , which is often used as a floor or for a roof. To ensure long-term durability and years of operation, contractors install reinforced steel bars to a reinforced concrete slab.

It is also essential to get an expert calculate and provide proper measurements. A properly measured thickness will influence the strength of the slab and also the overall structure. The slab's thickness differs based on the structure. For example, for residential flooring, 4 inches is a standard thickness. Experts recommend 5 to 6 inches of thickness for construction that are regularly subject to heavy loads.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

A concrete slab is an extremely popular construction material. For many years, contractors have used it to create various construction structures. It is a preferred choice to build foundations and other projects. As opposed to other materials for construction, concrete is extremely beneficial. Its benefits include:

 

Durability and longevity

There may not be a more robust construction material than concrete. The proper care and maintenance can ensure that concrete structures last for a long time. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Reinforcements that are properly done can also extend the life and strength of concrete slabs. Concrete can be compacted to ensure that there aren't many voids, or porous spaces in the concrete slab. Thus, reducing the probability of cracks or other damages.

 

Fantastic Thermal Mass

Concrete has a high thermal mass. It refers to its capacity to regulate the flow of heat energy. Because of its large thermal mass, concrete can control indoor comfort and decrease or boost indoor temperatures by absorbing natural heat. Materials that have significant thermal mass are ideal in places with extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has many advantages, for example, its resistance to various elements. This includes its absence of organic material. So, it doesn't suffer from rotting or corrosion caused by high temperatures. Furthermore, it has an extremely high compressive strength, which signifies that it will not fracture when squeezed. We can also apply concrete treatments to concrete surfaces in order to make them more resistant to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another aspect that makes concrete extremely popular is its versatility. Concrete is very flexible and you can create a variety of it. Utilizing a variety of methods and techniques for creating a concrete slab with the texture, color and pattern you like. You can have experts custom-design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Like other construction materials concrete is very easy to maintain. It doesn't require frequent maintenance care by a pro. You can easily rid yourself of dirt, stains and dust by using simple cleaning materials.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

The Poured Concrete Slabs slabs created by pouring concrete on site. The process we follow is setting up concrete on site, which allows us to guarantee significant outcomes. The process of pouring concrete allows us the flexibility to make last-minute tweaks to the appearance of the surface. It also lets us alter the dimensions that the project is needed. Due to its advantages, it's a fantastic choice for custom concrete construction projects.

If there's a negative to this, it would be the time and expense. Because we will pour a concrete slab on the spot we will need additional equipment and tools, for example, the use of a concrete mixer or a bull float. We'll also need more workers for the work. The installation cost is more expensive. Poured concrete slabs can be difficult to work with. A concrete slab that is cured on its own can take up to 21 days. The slabs are not left with concrete that is still wet. We wait for the slabs ' cure time to pass so we can conduct one final quality inspection before handing over the work. If you're not willing to put off waiting that long, it's not for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

As the name suggests, this type of slab is precast. The slabs are manufactured at a factory, and then shipped straight on to construction sites. Although you can customize the dimensions of the slab, making adjustments and last-minute changes onsite is impossible. The slabs are not poured directly that are precast, it costs less and requires less time.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs with decorative designs are that are made using the color, pattern, or design you like. Also, we can create a style for your slabs at the discretion of your taste. This feature is only accessible when you select our slabs made of concrete. Otherwise, it's difficult to create the design or style you'd like.
