Post-Tensioned Concrete Slabs

Thinner Slabs

Thinner slabs maximise floor to ceiling height and can even create additional floors within the same building height. Additional savings can be made on the costs of cladding and services.
 

 

 

Longer Spans

The longer spans achieved with CCL Slabs reduce the number of columns, giving greater flexibility of layout and expanded open spaces.

 

 

 

Crack Resistance

The reduced cracking of CCL Slabs makes them ideal for exposed soffit applications.

 

 

 

Flexibility

Able to cope with difficult or complex geometry, follow irregular column grids and curved edges, CCL Slabs allow designers more freedom to create more inspired structures.

 

 

 

Reduced Material Usage

When compared to reinforced concrete, CCL Slabs require reduced quantities of concrete and reinforcement, in some areas by as much as 30%, producing significant cost savings.

Lower CO₂ Emissions

The lower CO₂ emissions resulting from reduced quantities of concrete and reinforcement provide environmental benefits.

Faster Construction

Reduced quantities of reinforcement within the slabs accelerate construction schedules by minimising fixing time. The stressing of the post-tensioning system at early concrete stages allows a faster shoring and re-shoring cycle.
