Hollow-Core Slabs

function

A system of floors, roofs and terraces, amongst other things, made of slabs with continuous hollow cells, is an alternative to that of concrete poured in place. The use of hollow-core slabs is not restricted to the commercial market. It applies to most types of situations in which larges clearances and heavy design loads are needed.

ATTRIBUTes

With pre-tensioned prestressing reinforcements constituting the main reinforcement, the hollowed slabs are used for the production of large clearance surfaces without intermediate supports.

specific aspects

he slab section has continuous cells and a concrete area paired with minimal overlap of the framework, guaranteeing fire resistance of at least two hours. In addition, the cells allow a 30% reduction in weight compared to a solid section.

benefits

Manufactured in a controlled environment, dry concrete with a strength of 41 MPa, large clearances, quick installation 12 months a year, quick access to installed slab surfaces, the underside of the slabs can serve as a finished ceiling, very competitive price, can adapt to several project geometries, production on “just in time” basis.
