Concrete Slab

Slab is a structural element made of a concrete used to create flat surfaces like ceiling, roof decks, floors etc. It is also prefabricated to the off-site and then placed to the construction site where it has to be placed and poured. It is supported by beams, columns, walls and ground.There are many types of slabs.

Flat Slab

This type of reinforced slab is easily constructed and supported by column without the use of beams.

Conventional Slab

In this type of Slab, it is supported by both beam and column. There are two types of conventional slab. One way slab and Two way Slab. In one way slab, slab is supported by beam from the two sides. In two way slab, it is supported by beam from all four sides.

Hollow core ribbed Slab

It runs through the units and reduced self-weight and maximize structural efficiency. They function as a service duct and used for office buildings, multi-storey car parking.

Solid slab raft

Where it’s not possible to put columns at a regular interval throughout the building, this type of slab is used. This is used for small building.

Composite Slab

This slab is made of using profile steel sheeting. This is capable of handling the weight of wet concrete.
