What is a Waffle Slab?
A waffle pod concrete raft slab is the most common type of slab being done in the housing market industry. Approximately 90% of all slabs are done using this system.
A waffle slab is constructed , with polystyrene pods forming voids underneath the slab and providing concrete slab support and thermal insulation.
The waffle pods are placed in a grid pattern with spaces in between the pods called ribs. These ribs and the edge beams, form as a type of beam and slab design.
The waffle pod slab means that you can get your house or factory slab poured and constructed quicker as you don’t need to excavate any trenches.
What is a Raft Slab?
A raft slab, aslo called a slab on ground, or an engineered slab, usually consists of having the reinforced concrete slab connected to reinforced concrete beams or footings.
The engineers will need to calculate the loads on the Raft Slab and then will be able to work out the thickness of your slab, and the dimensions of your beams or footings.
Do I need any beams?
Every type of project will need to be assessed independently, but generally if there are load bearing walls that are unsupported, then you will most likely require some steel beams.
Also if you have long spans in some rooms, they may also require steel or timber beams to support the roof loads.
Why do I have to put piers below my slab?
Most soils in your property are usually unsuitable as a foundation for your new home.
If this is the case, then you will be required to install piers below the slab. This will be excavated to a suitable bearing capacity usually nominated in your Site Classification Report.
The piers are there to prevent any cracks or settlement in your newly built home or building.
