Elematic Flooring Solutions

Prestressed Floors

Description

Prestressed floors make it possible to use long spans, which adds flexibility to the design of floor plans as restricting load-bearing structures can be far apart, and also make it possible to use inexpensive materials for many partition walls, which do not have to be load-bearing. In addition, prestressed floors save in steel and provide for efficient manufacturing methods. With Elematic technology, you will also benefit from accurate dimensions and strand locations in the cross-section, for less work on site because of minimal thickness and camber variation.

Prestressed Floors with Elematic:

• Extra long spans for design flexibility
• Savings in steel and partition wall materials
• Accurate dimensions and strand locations for less work on-site
• Leading technologies with up-to-date info on latest applications
