What Is A Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab refers to the most popular structural element made of concrete cast. The slab is flat, horizontal concrete surface commonly employed as a floor, or for a roof. In order to guarantee durability and years of service, contractors include reinforced steel bars to a reinforced concrete slab.

It is also essential that you have an expert calculate and provide proper measurements. A properly measured thickness will impact the integrity of the slab, as well as the entire structure. The slab's thickness is dependent on the type of project. For example, in residential floor construction, 4 inches is the recommended thickness. Experts recommend five to six inches of thickness in buildings that are regularly subject to heavy loads.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

A concrete slab is one of the most popular construction materials. Since the beginning, contractors have employed it to construct a variety of construction structures. It is a popular choice to build foundations and other projects. Different from other construction materials concrete has a lot of advantages. Its advantages are:

 

Durability and longevity

There is no more sturdy construction material than concrete. Care and maintenance will ensure that concrete structures last for many years. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Reinforcements that are properly done can also extend the life span and strength of concrete slabs. Concrete can be compacted in a way that we do not have any gaps or porous areas within the concrete slab. So, we can reduce the risk of cracks, and other damage.

 

Fantastic Thermal Mass

Concrete has a large thermal mass. This is due to its capacity to control the flow energy. Because of its thermal mass, it can maintain indoor comfort and lessen or increase indoor temperatures by taking in 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 many advantages, like its resistance different elements. For instance, it is devoid of organic matter. Thus, it will not decay due to rotting or the formation of rust due to excessive heat. Furthermore, it is an extremely high compressive strength, which means it will not break when squeezed. It is also possible to apply certain concrete treatment on concrete surfaces so that they are more resistant to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another aspect that makes concrete popular is its versatility. Concrete is very flexible and it is possible to do a lot of it. By using a variety methods and tools and techniques, you can design an concrete slab that has the color, texture and design you prefer. Experts can design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Unlike other construction materials, concrete is very simple to maintain. It does not need regular maintenance by a professional. You can effortlessly get rid of dirt, stains and dust using the most basic cleaning materials.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

The Poured Concrete Slabs slabs formed by pouring cement on the ground. We follow a set of steps for placing concrete on the ground in order to deliver impressive outcomes. When we pour concrete, we have the freedom to make last-minute changes regarding the design of the surface. Also, it allows us to alter the dimensions of the project on site if required. Based on its strengths, it's the ideal option to build concrete projects with a custom design.

If there is a downside to this plan, it's the time and expense. Since we'll pour a concrete slab at the site there is a need for more instruments and equipment, for instance, an electric mixer for concrete as well as a bull floating. Additionally, we'll require more workers to complete the job. So, the price for installation is much more expensive. Concrete slabs that have been poured are time-consuming. For the concrete slab to cure, it could take up to 21 calendar days. Our goal is to not leave you with concrete that is wet. We allow concrete slabs to cure so we can conduct an assessment of quality prior to turning over the project. If you're not willing to sit for that long we'd recommend this for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

The name implies that this type of slab is precast. The slabs can be made at a factory and are then shipped directly onto the site of construction. Though you can alter the size in the slab, 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.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

decorative concrete slabs are slabs built with the color design or pattern of your choice. We are also able to customize a layout for your slabs based on your preference. This feature is only available if you choose our concrete slabs poured service. If not, it's difficult to get the design or style you'd like to achieve.
