What is a Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab refers to an important structural element that is made out of cast concrete. It's an even horizontal concrete surface commonly employed as a floor, or as a roof. For durability and to ensure years of operation, contractors install an welded wire mesh or steel bars to a concrete slab that has been reinforced.

In addition, it is crucial to have an expert calculate to provide accurate measurements. In the end, the proper thickness will impact the integrity of the slab and also the overall structure. The slab's size varies depending on the structure. For example, in residential flooring 4 inches is considered the ideal thickness. Experts suggest five to six inches of thickness for structures that carry heavy loads regularly.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

A concrete slab is an extremely popular construction material. For many years, contractors have used it to build various building structures. It's a typical choice in foundations and for other development projects. In contrast to other building materials, concrete is extremely beneficial. Its benefits include:

 

Longevity, Durability, and Durability

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 of and the strength of concrete slabs. We can compact concrete so that there aren't any voids or areas of porous material within the slab of concrete. Thus, reducing the probability of cracks or other damages.

 

Excellent Thermal Mass

Concrete has a substantial thermal mass, which relates to its ability to control the flow energy. Because of its large thermal mass it can maintain indoor comfort and lessen or increase temperatures in the indoor space by absorption of natural heat. Materials that have large thermal mass can be beneficial in places with extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has numerous advantages, including its resistance to many different elements. For instance, it is devoid of organic material. Therefore, it is unable to change its shape due to rotting and burning caused by extreme heat. It also has a relatively high compressive strength, which means it will not break when squeezed. There are also specific concrete treatment on concrete surfaces in order to make them more resistant to chemical staining and spills.

 

Flexibility

Another reason concrete is famous is its flexibility. Concrete is so versatile that it's possible to do lots of it. By using a variety methods and tools you can make an attractive concrete slab using the texture, color, and pattern that you want. You can even have experts create it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

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

  

Poured Concrete Slab

The Poured Concrete Slabs slabs created by pouring a concrete slab on the site. We follow a set of steps for installing concrete on the site which ensures that we can deliver substantial results. Concrete pouring gives us the flexibility to make last-minute tweaks regarding the design of the surface. It also permits us to modify the size of the project onsite if necessary. Based on its strengths, it makes a perfect choice for concrete projects that can be customized.

If there is a downside to this, it's the time and expense. As we pour a concrete slab to the location and require additional tools and equipment like an electric mixer for concrete as well as a bull floating. We'll also need more people to do the work. Thus, the expense of installing is higher. Concrete slabs poured in a concrete mix are very time-consuming. For a concrete slab to cure on its own, it takes about 21 days. We don't leave with concrete that is wet. We allow the slabs ' to cure, so we can conduct a quality check before turning over the project. If you're unable to sit for that long then this one's for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

The name says it all, the slabs are precast. These slabs are constructed in a facility before being shipped directly for the build site. While you are able to customize the size to the slab, making adjustments or necessary changes at the last minute is not possible. As opposed to the slabs that are directly poured in the slab, precast costs less money and takes less time to complete.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

Decorative concrete slabs are slabs which are crafted with the color pattern or style you would like. Also, we can create a design for your slabs based on your preference. This feature is only accessible when you select our concrete slabs that are poured. Otherwise, it's hard to achieve the look or look you're looking for.
