Benefits
Time consuming activities such as
propping shuttering and concrete propping are virtually eliminated.
Slab ends can be notched during
manufacture to facilitate a bearing within the depth of main supporting steel.
This minimises storey height, with substantial lower internal fitting costs
etc.
Hollowcore floors can be provided
with factory formed service holes thus avoiding laborious setting out and
shuttering on site.
Floor slabs are manufactured on
high quality steel beds and are suitable in appropriate cases for direct
decoration.
The hollowcore floor slabs are
available with a wide variety of factory formed notches, slots and reinforcement
arrangements, which offer various design approaches.
Our slabs offer the ideal
structural sections by reducing the dead weight, whilst providing the maximum
structural efficiency within the slab depth.
Hollowcore floors can be supplied
with a fire resistance of up to 2 hours. Periods in excess of this can be
provided with modified sections if required.
Hollowcore floors are factory
produced. They are manufactured in an environment which is more readily
controlled than a building site. Quality control systems are properly
implemented and are independently examined on a regular basis.
