THE SYSTEM
The TECSLAB™ system provides a superior long-spanning and high load capacity floor with the feel of a concrete slab. It offers a lightweight construction alternative in most low to medium rise structures, including transition floors above car parks. Market Applications include multi-residential apartment buildings Class 1, 2, 3 and 9c up to 4 storeys.
▼ 1. Concrete Floor Feel
TECSLAB™ combines the properties of two exceptional construction products TECBEAM™ floor joists and Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) panels to provide a concrete floor feel on a lightweight long-span frame.
▼ 2. Reduction of Sound Transmission
The TECSLAB™ system achieves significant reduction in sound transmission between floors from airborne noise and footfall.
▼ 3. Stiffness
The TECSLAB™ system is engineered for stiffness in the design for user comfort and to virtually eliminate floor ‘bounce’.
▼ 4. Low long term deflection
The TECSLAB™ system has an extremely low long-term deflection factor. This minimises floor movement and creep and means less maintenance issues postconstruction, compared with concrete or all timber.
[/three_fourth_last]▼ 5. High Load Capacity
The TECBEAM system readily carries point loads and achieves high load capacity (up to 10 kPa).
▼ 6. Long Spans
The TECSLAB™ system allows engineers to achieve long spans of up to 7 metres.
▼ 7. Cantilevered Balconies
The versatility of the TECSLAB™ system simplifies the design and construction of cantilevered balconies and rooms.
▼ 8. Set downs
The TECSLAB™ system is designed to easily build wet area set downs and balconies.
▼ 9. Flat floor surface
When installed the TECSLAB™ system is immediately ready for flooring providing an ideal flat surface for timber, tiles or carpet finishes.
