What is a Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab refers to an essential structural element composed from cast concrete. It is a flat, horizontal concrete slab, commonly utilized as a floor or a roof. To ensure long-lasting durability and years of performance, contractors can add the wire mesh that is welded or reinforced steel bars to a concrete slab that has been reinforced.

However, it is vital to hire an expert calculation and provide the right measurements. The proper thickness of the slab will have an impact on the integrity of your slab and the entire structure. The slab's thickness will vary based on the construction. For instance, in residential flooring 4 inches is the typical thickness. Experts suggest five to six inches of thickness to build with heavy loads frequently.

 

Benefits of Concrete Slabs

A concrete slab is a well-known construction material. For decades, contractors have used it to construct various construction structures. It is an extremely popular option to build foundations and other projects. Like other construction materials concrete has a lot of advantages. Its advantages include:

 

Longevity and Durability

There's probably not a more robust construction material than concrete. With proper care and maintenance, you can allow concrete structures to last for decades. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Reinforcements that are properly done can also extend the lifespan and robustness of concrete slabs. We can compress concrete to the point that there aren't any voids or areas of porous material in the concrete slab. So, we can reduce the risk of cracks or other damages.

 

Fantastic Thermal Mass

Concrete has a substantial thermal mass. This is due to its capacity to regulate the flow or flow of thermal energy. Because of its high thermal mass, it can adjust indoor comfort levels and reduce or increase indoor temperatures through taking in natural heat. Materials with high thermal mass are useful for areas that have extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has many advantages such as its resistance to different elements. Its main advantage is its absence of organic material. This means it won't get rotten or burning caused by extreme heat. Additionally, it has very high compressive strengths that means it will not fracture when squeezed. We can also apply concrete treatment on concrete surfaces that make them more resilient to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another attribute that makes cement famous is its flexibility. The material is so flexible it is possible to do a lot of it. Through a variety or methods you can make concrete slabs with the color, texture and pattern you like. Experts can design it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Contrary to other building materials, concrete is easy to maintain. It doesn't require regular cleaning by a professional. You are able to easily get rid of stains, dirt, and dust by using simple cleaning products.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

Poured concrete slabs are slabs created by pouring concrete on the ground. There is a method we use for placing concrete on the spot so that we can guarantee substantial results. The process of pouring concrete allows us the freedom to make last-minute changes in the design of our surface. It also allows us to adjust the size of the job on site if it is required. Thanks to its attributes, it's an ideal choice for concrete projects that can be customized.

If there's one downside to this, it would be time and cost. Since we'll pour a concrete slab on site We will require more equipment and tools, for example, mixing concrete and a bull float. We'll also need more workers for the work. Also, the installation price is much higher. Concrete slabs poured with a pour are very time-consuming. To cure concrete slabs alone is a process that can take up to 21 working days. We do not leave with concrete that is still wet. We wait for the slabs to dry so that we can do a quality check before turning over the project. If you're not willing to wait that long, then this project isn't for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

According to the name, this type of slab is precast. The slabs are manufactured in a plant and shipped directly at the place of work. You can however customize the size or thickness of the slabs however making adjustments and last-minute changes onsite is impossible. The slabs are not poured directly that are precast, it costs less and is less time-consuming.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs with decorative design are which are crafted with the color design or design you like. We are also able to create a custom pattern to your slabs at the discretion of your taste. This application is available only If you opt for our poured concrete slab services. Otherwise, it will be hard to achieve the look or style you want.
