What is Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab refers to an essential structural element composed from cast concrete. This is an elongated horizontal concrete surface commonly used as a flooring or a roof. To ensure longevity and years of operation, contractors install the wire mesh that is welded or reinforced steel bars to a concrete slab that has been reinforced.

Also, it's important to get an expert calculate and supply accurate measurements. A proper thickness will impact the strength of the slab as well the entire structure. The thickness of the slab varies based on the particular project. For example, in residential flooring four inches is the norm thickness. Experts recommend five to six inches for buildings that are regularly subject to heavy loads.

 

The advantages of using concrete slabs

A concrete slab is a well-known construction material. For decades, contractors have utilized it to construct various construction structures. It is a common choice when it comes to foundations as well as development projects. It is different from other construction materials because concrete has a lot of advantages. Its advantages are:

 

Durability and long-term durability

There's probably no more sturdy construction material than concrete. Proper care and upkeep can help concrete structures last for a long time. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. In addition, proper reinforcement can prolong the life span and strength of concrete slabs. We can make concrete compact so that there aren't any gaps or porous areas in the slab of concrete. Thus, reducing the chances of cracking or other damage.

 

Excellent Thermal Mass

Concrete has a very high thermal mass, which refers to its capacity to regulate the flow and distribution of thermal energy. Because of its thermal mass, it's able to improve indoor comfort, and also reduce and increase indoor temperatures by taking in natural heat. Materials that have high thermal mass are beneficial in areas with extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has numerous advantages, such as its resistance to various elements. Of these is its lack of organic matter. Therefore, it cannot change its shape due to rotting and corrosion due to heat. Additionally, it has an impressive compressive strength, which signifies that it will not fracture when squeezed. There are also specific concrete treatments to concrete surfaces that make them more resilient to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another feature that makes concrete the most sought-after is its versatility. Concrete is extremely flexible, it's possible to make a lot of it. By employing different methods and application you can make an concrete slab that has the texture, color, and pattern that you want. You can even have experts create it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Contrary to other construction materials concrete is very simple to maintain. It doesn't require frequent maintenance maintenance from a professional. You can quickly get rid of dirt, stains and dust by using simple cleaning supplies.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

Formed concrete slabs can be described as slabs created by pouring a concrete slab on the spot. We follow a set of steps for placing concrete on the ground which ensures that we can deliver substantial results. Pouring concrete gives us flexibility to make changes regarding the design of the surface. It also lets us adjust the size of the project onsite if it is required. Given its qualities, it's the ideal option for concrete projects that can be customized.

If there's any downside to this, it's the time and expense. Since we'll be pouring a concrete slab onto the site, we need more tools and equipment like the concrete mixer and bull floating. Also, we will require more people to do the work. So, the price for installation is much more expensive. Concrete slabs poured in a concrete mix are costly to install. To cure concrete slabs alone takes about 21 days. We do not leave you with wet concrete. We wait for the slabs ' cure time to pass so we can do a quality check before turning over the work. If you're unable to endure that much time, then this project is perfect for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

According to the name, this kind of slab is precast. The slabs will be manufactured in a factory before being delivered directly into the building site. While you are able to customize the dimensions and shape of your slabs, making changes and urgent changes on the job is impossible. The slabs are not poured directly that are precast, it costs less and takes less time.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs that are decorative are of concrete that have the color, pattern, or pattern of your choice. You can also design a pattern to your slabs depending on the style you prefer. This feature is only accessible with our poured concrete slab services. If not, it's difficult to create the style or style you desire.
