What Is A Concrete Slab?

Concrete slabs are a structural feature that is commonly made of concrete cast. The slab is flat horizontal concrete surface that is commonly used as a flooring or roofing. In order to guarantee durability and years in performance, contractors incorporate reinforcement steel bars to a concrete slab that has been reinforced.

While it's also important that you have an expert calculate and provide the right measurements. The correct thickness will affect the quality of the slab as well as the whole structure. The slab's thickness will vary based on the building. For instance, in residential floor construction four inches is the usual thickness. Experts recommend five to six inches of thickness to build with heavy loads regularly.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

Concrete slabs are a well-known construction material. For decades, contractors have employed it for the construction of various construction structures. It's a typical choice for foundations , as well as other development projects. Different from other construction materials concrete has so many advantages. Its benefits include:

 

Longevity, Durability, and Durability

There may not be a more durable construction material that concrete. The proper care and maintenance could make concrete structures last for many years. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. The proper reinforcement can increase the durability and lifespan of concrete slabs. We can compact concrete to ensure that we do not have any voids or areas of porous material in this concrete slab. Thus, reducing the chances for cracks as well as other damages.

 

Excellent Thermal Mass

Concrete has a high thermal mass. This is due to its capacity to manage the flow of energy. Because of its large thermal mass, it's capable of helping regulate indoor comfort and reduce and increase indoor temperatures by absorption of natural heat. Materials with high thermal mass are beneficial especially in regions with extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has many advantages, including its resistance to many different elements. The most notable is the lack of organic matter. So, it doesn't change its shape due to rotting and the burning of metals caused by excessive heat. In addition, it has a relatively high compressive strength, which implies it will not break when squeezed. It's also possible to apply specific concrete treatments on concrete surfaces so that they are more resistant to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another thing that makes concrete extremely popular is its versatility. Concrete is very flexible and it's easy to make lots of it. Utilizing a variety of methods and techniques the possibility of creating a concrete slab that is the texture, color and pattern that you want. Experts can design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Unlike other construction materials, concrete is incredibly easy to maintain. It doesn't require frequent maintenance or care from a professional. You can get rid of stains, dirt, and dust with basic cleaning materials.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

In the case of Poured Concrete, they are slabs that are made by pouring concrete directly on the spot. We follow a particular procedure for making concrete at the site, which allows us to guarantee significant outcomes. Concrete is poured gives us the freedom to make last-minute changes in the design of our surface. Also, it allows us to modify the size of the project on site if it is required. Due to its advantages, it's the ideal option for projects made of concrete that are custom-designed.

If there's a drawback to this, it would be the time and expense. Because we are pouring a concrete slab to the location, we need more instruments and equipment, for instance, the use of a concrete mixer or a bull float. We'll also require more workers for the work. This means that the installation cost is higher. Concrete slabs that are poured are slow to cure. To cure concrete slabs alone takes up to 21 days. We don't leave with concrete that is still wet. We let the slabs ' to cure so we can conduct checks on the quality of the concrete before handing over the work. If you don't want to endure that much time, this project is for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

The name says it all, this slab type is precast. The slabs are manufactured by a manufacturer and then transported directly into the building site. Though you can alter the size that the slab is made, making modifications and necessary changes at the last minute is not possible. In contrast to slabs that are poured directly the precast slab is less expensive and is less time-consuming.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs with decorative designs are which are crafted with the color pattern or design of your choice. They can also be customized with a design for your slabs based on your preference. This feature is only available when you select our concrete slab service. In the absence of this, it can be difficult to attain the design or look you're after.
