What Is A Concrete Slab?

Concrete slabs are a structural feature that is commonly made of concrete cast. It's a flat, horizontal concrete surface which is typically employed as a floor, or a roof. To ensure durability and years of performance, contractors add an unwelded wire mesh or reinforcement steel bars to a reinforced concrete slab.

Also, it's important for an expert to calculate and provide proper measurements. The proper thickness of the slab will alter the strength of slab as well as the structure. The slab's thickness differs based on the particular project. For instance, in the case of residential flooring 4 inches is the recommended thickness. Experts recommend five to six inches of thickness for buildings that are regularly subject to heavy loads.

 

Benefits of Using Concrete Slab

Concrete slabs are one of the most popular construction materials. Over the years, builders have utilized it to construct various building structures. It is a popular choice for foundations , as well as other development projects. As opposed to other building materials concrete is so advantageous. Concrete's advantages include:

 

Durability and long-term durability

There's probably not a more durable construction material than concrete. Care and maintenance can ensure that concrete structures last for decades. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Reinforcements that are properly done can also extend the longevity and durability of concrete slabs. We can compress concrete to the point that we do not have the appearance of voids or porous regions within this concrete slab. It also reduces the possibility of cracks or other damages.

 

Excellent Thermal Mass

Concrete has a great thermal mass, which refers to its ability to regulate the flow and distribution of thermal energy. Because of its thermal mass, it can improve indoor comfort, and also reduce or increase the temperature of indoor spaces by taking in natural heat. Materials with high thermal mass work for areas that have extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete offers many advantages, among them its resistance various elements. This includes its absence of organic matter. So, it doesn't change its shape due to rotting and the rusting that is caused by heat. It also has an extremely high compressive strength that ensures it will not crack when squeezed. Additionally, we can apply specific concrete treatments to concrete surfaces to help them resist to chemical staining and spills.

 

Flexibility

Another quality that makes concrete popular is its versatility. Concrete is so versatile you can make a lot of it. Making use of different techniques and methods for creating concrete slabs with the texture, color, and design of your choice. You can even have experts create it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

Contrary to other construction materials concrete is simple to maintain. It doesn't require regular maintenance care by a pro. It is easy to get rid of dirt, stains and dust by using common cleaning products.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

In the case of Poured Concrete, they are constructed by pouring concrete onto the spot. We use a specific procedure for placing concrete on the spot to ensure we get significant results. Concrete installation gives us flexibility to make any last-minute adjustments to the appearance of the surface. Additionally, we can modify the size of the project in the field if it is required. With its features, it's the perfect option for projects made of concrete that are custom-designed.

If there's one downside to this plan, it's time and cost. Since we'll be pouring concrete slab to the location, we need more tools and equipment like cement mixers and a bull floating. There will also be a need for additional workers to finish the job. Also, the installation price is higher. Concrete slabs poured in a concrete mix are very time-consuming. Curing concrete slabs by itself can take up to 21 days. We do not leave with concrete that is wet. We let the slabs ' to cure so we can conduct one final quality inspection before handing over the work. If you're not willing to endure that much time, this project is for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

You can however customize the size and shape of your slabs, making changes and late-night changes on site isn't feasible. As opposed to the slabs that are directly poured as precasts, precast costs less and requires less time.
