Lightweight Concrete Roof Slabs

They are used as load bearing or non load bearing elements in residential and commercial construction or as noise barriers on streets and railway lines.

Lightweight concrete roof slabs.

Light weight concrete slabs are available both with a raw and with a ground surface. Lightweight screeds and substrates. Boral has specially designed lightweight concrete using a non toxic treated polystyrene aggregate or by the use of cellular foam injection by specially trained applicators. The lwic systems are composed of either aggregate or cellular concrete.

The design makes it cheaper. Standard concrete as a density of around 2300kg m3 and lightweight concrete generally has. Lightweight concrete can also be applied as a topping slab over structural concrete decks. Researchers at the technical school eth zurich have constructed a unique lightweight concrete ceiling by mixing computational design 3d printing and prefabrication.

It is designed for efficient construction of gradient and thermal insulating layers of flat roofs. Our sub six profiles and our flat lightweight 720 lbs. Dry screeds and dry fills. Profiles are a fraction of the weight of our conventional roof tiles and are perfect for re roof projects.

Light weight concrete slabs can be used universally. Ground floors and foudations insulation. Lightweight insulated concrete also known as lwic is a material intended for use as an insulation and substrate for support and attachment of roofing membranes on slope roofs. Polystyrene lightweight concrete s density compression strength and thermal conductivity are similar to that of foam concrete.
