What is a Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab refers to an essential structural element composed of cast concrete. They are flat, horizontal concrete surface commonly used for floors or roofing. For durability and to ensure years of performance, contractors can add reinforcement steel bars to a concrete slab that has been reinforced.

In addition, it is crucial for an expert to calculate to provide accurate measurements. A properly measured thickness will influence the strength of the slab as well as the overall structure. The slab's thickness varies depending on the construction. For instance, in residential flooring, 4 inches is a standard thickness. Experts recommend 5 to 6 inches of thickness in buildings that are regularly subject to heavy loads.

 

Benefits of Concrete Slabs

Concrete slabs are one of the most popular construction materials. Over the years, builders have used it to build various building structures. It is a common choice for foundations and other development projects. Unlike other construction materials, concrete has a lot of advantages. Its benefits include:

 

Durability and long-term durability

There may not be a more durable construction material that concrete. If properly maintained and cared for, it can make concrete structures last for many years. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Proper reinforcement can also prolong the durability and lifespan of concrete slabs. We can compress concrete in such a way that we do not have any voids or areas of porous material in this concrete slab. So, reducing the likelihood that cracks will occur and damage could result.

 

Fantastic Thermal Mass

Concrete is known for its high thermal mass, which relates to its capacity to manage the flow of energy. Because of its thermal mass, it is able to improve indoor comfort, and also reduce and increase indoor temperatures by taking in natural heat. Materials with high thermal mass are beneficial in areas that experience extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has many advantages such as its resistance to various elements. This includes its absence of organic material. This means it won't fall apart due to rotting nor rusting caused by excessive heat. Furthermore, it is a relatively high compressive strength that implies it will not break when squeezed. We can also apply concrete treatments on concrete surfaces to help them resist to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another feature that makes concrete the most sought-after is its versatility. Concrete is extremely flexible, you can make a lot of it. Through a variety or methods, you can create a concrete slab in the texture, color and pattern of your preference. The experts can custom design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Like other construction materials concrete is extremely simple to maintain. It doesn't require regular upkeep by a professional. You can easily rid yourself of dirt, stains and dust using the most basic cleaning materials.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

They are created by pouring concrete over the ground. There is a method we use for installing concrete on the site, which allows us to guarantee significant outcomes. Pouring concrete gives us the freedom to make last-minute changes to the design of the surface. Also, it allows us to alter the dimensions of the project at the site, if it is required. Based on its strengths, it is a great choice for concrete projects that can be customized.

If there's a downside to this, it's the time and expense. Because we are pouring a concrete slab at the site we will need additional instruments and equipment, for instance, an concrete mixer as well as a bull float. There will also be a need for more workers to complete the work. Therefore, the cost for installation is much more expensive. Concrete slabs that have been poured are very time-consuming. To cure concrete slab alone is a process that can take up to 21 working days. It is not our intention to leave you with concrete that is still wet. We let concrete slabs to cure so we can perform a quality check before turning over the project. If you're not ready to be patient, then this option is ideal for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

Like the name implies, the slabs of this kind are precast. The slabs are made in a factory and delivered straight onto the site of construction. You can however customize the dimensions in the slab, making adjustments or quick changes on-site is impossible. Unlike the ones poured directly that are precast, it costs less and is also less time-consuming.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs with decorative designs are which are crafted with the color design or design you like. Also, we can create a pattern to your slabs at the discretion of your taste. This service is only available with our concrete slab services. If not, it's difficult to attain the design or look you're looking for.
