What is A Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab is a structural feature that is commonly made of concrete cast. A concrete slab can be described as a smooth horizontal concrete surface used as a floor and roofing. To ensure long-term durability and years of performance, contractors use an welded wire mesh or steel bars to the concrete slab they have reinforced.

Also, it's important for an expert to calculate and make the correct measurements. The correct thickness will impact the integrity of the slab as well as the overall structure. The thickness of the slab varies based on the particular project. For instance, in the case of residential floor construction 4 inches is the most common thickness. Experts suggest five to six inches of thickness for structures with heavy loads frequently.

 

Benefits of Using Concrete Slab

A concrete slab is an extremely sought-after construction material. Since the beginning, contractors have used it to create various construction structures. It is a popular choice for foundations and other construction projects. Unlike other construction materials, concrete is extremely beneficial. The advantages of concrete include:

 

Durability and Longevity

There is no more robust construction material than concrete. A proper maintenance and care makes concrete structures last for decades. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. The proper reinforcement can increase the lifespan and toughness of concrete slabs. Concrete can be compacted in a way that there aren't any voids or porous areas in the concrete slab. This reduces the risk of cracks or other damages.

 

Excellent Thermal Mass

Concrete has a high thermal mass, which refers to its capacity to regulate the flow of thermal energy. Because of its high thermal mass, it's capable of helping help regulate indoor comfort as well as reduce or increase temperatures in the indoor space by absorbing natural heat. Materials that have high thermal mass are beneficial in areas that experience extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete offers many advantages, including its resistance to many different elements. For instance, it is devoid of organic matter. Therefore, it is unable to decay due to rotting or an excessive amount of heat that causes rust. Furthermore, it is significant compressive strength, which signifies that it will not fracture when squeezed. We also can apply concrete treatments to concrete surfaces to make them more resistant to chemical staining and spills.

 

Flexibility

Another reason concrete is popular is its versatility. Concrete is so versatile that it's easy to make lots of it. Utilizing a variety of methods and techniques the possibility of creating an attractive concrete slab using the color, texture and design of your choice. It is possible to have experts design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Contrary to other construction materials concrete is simple to maintain. It doesn't require routine maintenance care by a pro. You can get rid of stains, dirt, and dust by using basic cleaning supplies.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

These are slabs made by pouring concrete on site. The process we follow is creating concrete on the location to ensure we get significant outcomes. Concrete is poured gives us the flexibility to make last-minute tweaks to the layout of the surface. It also allows us to modify the size that the project is necessary. Thanks to its attributes, it's a fantastic choice for projects made of concrete that are custom-designed.

If there's a negative to this, it would be time and cost. Since we'll have to pour a concrete slab onto the site we will need additional machinery and tools like one concrete mixer, and a bull float. We'll also require an additional workforce to do the job. So, the price for installation is much more expensive. Poured concrete slabs can be laborious. For the concrete slab to cure, it takes between 21 and 21 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 one final quality inspection before handing over the project. If you're unwilling to be patient, then this project is perfect for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

According to the name, this slab type is precast. These slabs are constructed by a manufacturer and then transported directly over to the job site. Though you can alter the dimensions or thickness of the slabs however making adjustments and any last-minute adjustments on site is not possible. Like the slabs you pour directly Precast is cheaper and takes less time to complete.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

Decorative concrete slabs are slabs made with the color, design, or design you like. They can also be customized with a layout for your slabs according to your preferences. This feature is only accessible when you select our concrete slab service. If not, it's hard to achieve the look or style you desire.
