What is A Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab is a structural feature that is commonly made from cast concrete. It's flat horizontal concrete slab, commonly used as a floor or as a roof. For durability and to ensure years of use, contractors may add reinforced steel bars to a reinforced concrete slab.

Additionally, it is important to get an expert calculate and provide proper measurements. The proper thickness of the slab will alter the strength of slab, as well as the entire structure. The slab's thickness will vary based upon the specific project. For instance, in residential flooring, four inches is the usual thickness. Experts suggest five to six inches of thickness in buildings with heavy loads regularly.

 

Benefits of Using Concrete Slab

A concrete slab is an extremely popular construction material. For a long time, contractors have used it to construct various construction structures. It is a preferred choice when it comes to foundations as well as development projects. Unlike other construction materials, concrete is so advantageous. The advantages of concrete include:

 

Durability and long-term durability

There's not a more durable construction material that concrete. The proper care and maintenance can make concrete structures last for many years. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. A proper reinforcement will also increase the life span and strength of concrete slabs. Concrete can be compacted to ensure that we do not have any voids or areas of porous material within this concrete slab. Thus, reducing the probability that cracks will occur and damage could result.

 

Fantastic Thermal Mass

Concrete has a very high thermal mass, which refers to its capacity to regulate the flow of thermal energy. Because of its large thermal mass, concrete can improve indoor comfort, and also reduce or increase temperatures in the indoor space by taking in natural heat. Materials that have high thermal mass are beneficial in areas that experience extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has many advantages for example, its resistance to various elements. For instance, it is devoid of organic matter. Therefore, it cannot become degraded due to rotting or an excessive amount of heat that causes rust. Furthermore, it has quite a strong compressive force that means that it won't break when squeezed. It is also possible to apply certain concrete treatments on concrete surfaces for them to be more resistant to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another aspect that makes concrete very popular is its versatility. Concrete is so versatile that you can create a variety of it. Utilizing a variety of methods and techniques one can build an concrete slab that has the texture, color, and design of your choice. Experts can help you design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Contrary to other construction materials concrete is simple to maintain. It doesn't require regular maintenance services by a professional. It is simple to get rid of stains, dirt, and dust by using simple cleaning supplies.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

They are constructed by pouring concrete onto the spot. We follow a set of steps for setting up concrete on site to ensure we get significant results. Pouring concrete provides us with the possibility of making last-minute modifications to the layout of the surface. It also allows us to adjust the size of the project in the field if needed. Thanks to its attributes, it's a fantastic choice for projects made of concrete that are custom-designed.

If there's an issue to this, it would be time and cost. Since we'll pour a concrete slab over the site we will need additional machinery and tools like an concrete mixer as well as a bull float. Additionally, we'll require an additional workforce to do the work. Thus, the installation cost is much higher. Concrete slabs poured in a concrete mix are slow to cure. To cure concrete slabs alone can take up to 21 days. We don't leave with concrete that is wet. We allow the slabs ' cure time to pass so we can conduct an inspection before turning over the work. If you're not ready to sit for that long it's not for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

The name says it all, the slabs are precast. These slabs are constructed by a manufacturer and then transported straight at the place of work. While you are able to customize the size to the slab, making adjustments and final-minute changes on the spot isn't possible. Contrary to the slabs poured directly in the slab, precast costs less money and takes less time.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs that are decorative are constructed with the color, design, or texture of your preference. You can also design a pattern for your slabs according to your personal preferences. This feature is only available when you select our concrete slab poured services. Otherwise, it will be difficult to create the design or style you want.
