- Sub-base. Layer works and compaction testing.
- Reinforcement. Mesh, bars or steel fibres.
- Concrete. Large pours, often laser-screeded.
- Finishing. Power floating and curing.
- Joints. Saw-cut and construction joints, sealed.
- Surface. Hardeners, sealers or coatings where specified.
Suitable Projects
Warehouses, logistics centres, factories, cold stores, workshops, agricultural sheds, yards and loading areas.
Available Systems
- Jointed mesh-reinforced slab. The common choice for general warehouses.
- Steel-fibre slab. Fibres replace or reduce mesh, with fewer joints.
- Post-tensioned slab. Large joint-free areas, designed by specialists.
How the System Is Chosen
Rack and forklift loads, flatness requirements, soil and joint layout set the design. Get the engineer's specification before pricing.
Project Process
- Specification. Loads, flatness and finish.
- Layer works. Sub-base built and tested.
- Pour plan. Bays and joints planned.
- Pour. Concrete placed and floated.

- Loads. Heavy racking needs thicker slabs.
- Flatness. High-bay racking needs tighter tolerances.
- Layer works. Poor ground needs more sub-base.
- Area. Larger floors lower the rate per m².

Industrial Concrete Slabs FAQs
How thick should a warehouse slab be?
It depends on the loads and soil. An engineer specifies the thickness and reinforcement.
Are steel fibres better than mesh?
Fibres can speed up construction and reduce joints, but the choice is a design decision.
Why do industrial floors crack?
Common causes are poor sub-base, late joint cutting and poor curing. Ask contractors how they control each.
Can work continue while the floor cures?
Phased pours allow parts of a building to stay in use.
