Frequently Asked Question

How Long Does a Concrete Take to Dry?

Great things take time and when it comes to concrete, Proslabs Melbourne takes extra special care in ensuring durable and sustainable slabs. Depending on Melbourne’s weather conditions, Proslabs Melbourne will use a variety of materials such as hessian, plastic sheets and bags, or even specific chemical components that are brushed or sprayed onto the concrete for proper curing.

Proslabs Melbourne also leaves the freshly poured concrete and lets it dry for several days to ensure that its strength and durability are at their highest level when you receive your slab. On average, Proslabs Melbourne can provide a fully dried and ready-to-use concrete house slab within seven days after pouring.

Why Concrete Slabs

The difference between Concrete and Cement

Concrete and cement are two materials that are commonly used in construction projects. Though the terms ‘concrete’ and ‘cement’ are often used interchangeably, they are actually quite different materials. Cement is a component of concrete, but it cannot be used on its own to build structures.

Cement is a fine powder that consists of silica and calcium. It acts as a binding agent when mixed with water and other materials such as sand, stone, and gravel to form concrete. Cement is usually not very durable in comparison to concrete.

Concrete, on the other hand, is an aggregate material consisting of cement, sand, stone, and water. When mixed, these materials form a strong building material that can be used in various construction projects. Proslabs Melbourne provides expertly crafted and professional concrete house slabs for all your Melbourne building needs. Our concrete house slabs are designed to provide the perfect balance of strength, durability and lifestyle advantages for any home or commercial construction project.

Types of Concrete Slabs

Waffle Slabs

Waffle slabs, also known as waffle pods, are a type of concrete house slab that has been used in construction over the past two decades. These slabs feature an even and flat finish on the top surface, while the underside of the slab has unique crisscrossing concrete ribs at close intervals. This ribbed design resembles a Belgian waffle, which is where the name for this type of slab comes from.

The ribs in a waffle slab are formed by void formers that are usually made with polystyrene cubes. This allows builders to quickly and cost-effectively construct a concrete house slab on the ground, making it a popular choice among new home builders. The waffle slab is also incredibly structurally sound, making it an ideal choice for residential and commercial projects alike. Waffle slabs have been gaining traction in the world of construction for over 20 years, and with good reason. 

Types of Concrete Slabs

Raft Slabs

Raft slabs are a great option for many builders thanks to their reinforced steel construction, which provides stability and support. These foundations feature thickened edges ranging from 300-700mm deep and spacing at about 100 mm thick. Due to their construction, raft slabs can hold up against water exposure better than other options.

Raft slabs offer more insulation compared to other types of concrete house slabs making them ideal for areas with extreme temperature changes or harsh weather conditions such as heavy rain or snowfall. In addition, these slabs tend to have greater structural integrity due to their reinforced construction which makes them suitable for heavier loads such as houses with multiple stories or those located in areas prone to earthquakes. Taking all of these factors into account before beginning your project will ensure that you create a solid foundation that lasts for years to come!
