What is a concrete slab?

A concrete slab refers to an extremely popular structural component made of cast concrete. They are flat, horizontal concrete slab, commonly employed as a floor or for a roof. To ensure long-term durability and years in performance, contractors incorporate reinforced steel bars to a concrete slab that has been reinforced.

Meanwhile, it is essential to have an expert calculate and supply accurate measurements. The proper thickness of the slab will alter the strength of slab and the whole structure. The slab's thickness will vary based on the particular project. For example, in residential flooring, 4 inches is a standard thickness. Experts suggest five to six inches of thickness when building which are subject to frequent heavy loads.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

Concrete slabs are an extremely sought-after construction material. Over the years, builders have constructed a variety of construction structures. It's a typical choice to build foundations and other projects. Different from other construction materials concrete is incredibly beneficial. Concrete's advantages include:

 

Longevity and durability

There's probably no more sturdy construction material than concrete. With proper care and maintenance, you can help concrete structures last for a long time. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. In addition, proper reinforcement can prolong the lifespan and robustness of concrete slabs. Concrete can be compacted in a way that we do not have the appearance of voids or porous regions in the slab of concrete. Therefore, it reduces the chance that cracks will occur and damage could result.

 

Fantastic Thermal Mass

Concrete has a substantial thermal mass, which relates to its ability to regulate the flow of heat energy. Due to its thermal mass, it has the ability to regulate comfort in the indoor environment and reduce or increase indoor temperatures through absorption of natural heat. Materials that have significant thermal mass are ideal to those who live in areas of extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has numerous advantages, like its resistance various elements. The most notable is the lack of organic material. It is therefore unable to decay due to rotting or an excessive amount of heat that causes rust. Furthermore, it has a high compressive strength that implies it will not break when squeezed. Additionally, we can apply specific concrete treatments to concrete surfaces to give them a better resistance to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another quality that makes concrete famous is its flexibility. Concrete is extremely flexible, you can create a variety of it. Through a variety or methods one can build an attractive concrete slab using the texture, color, and design of your choice. Experts can design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Contrary to other building materials, concrete is incredibly simple to maintain. It does not require regular maintenance by a professional. You are able to easily get rid of dirt, stains and dust using a few basic cleaning products.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

Poured concrete slabs are created by pouring a concrete slab on site. The process we follow is pouring concrete onto the surface to ensure we get significant outcomes. When we pour concrete, we have the liberty to make last minute changes on the design and layout of the surface. It also allows us to alter the dimensions of the project in the field if necessary. Thanks to its attributes, it's the perfect option for custom concrete projects.

If there's one downside to this plan, it's the time and expense. Since we pour a concrete slab at the site it is necessary to have more instruments and equipment, for instance, the use of a concrete mixer or a bull float. We will also need more people to perform the work. Therefore, the cost for installation is much more expensive. Concrete slabs that have been poured are long-lasting. Curing concrete slabs by itself takes about 21 days. We don't leave you with wet concrete. We let the slabs to dry so that we can conduct a quality check before turning over the project. If you're unwilling to wait that long, then this option is ideal for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

According to the name, this type of slab is precast. They are manufactured in a facility before being shipped directly at the place of work. However, you can tailor the dimensions or thickness of the slabs however making adjustments or last-minute changes onsite is impossible. Unlike the ones poured directly that are precast, it costs less and is also less time-consuming.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

decorative concrete slabs are slabs of concrete that have the color, design or texture of your choice. We can also customize a design for your slabs in accordance with your preference. The application is only available if you choose the concrete slab services we offer. Otherwise, it's challenging to achieve the design or style you'd like to achieve.
