SuperSlab — Engineered Raft Foundation and Flooring System by Allied Concrete

SuperSlab — Engineered Raft Foundation and Flooring System

Description

SuperSlab is an above ground engineered raft foundation system, commonly known as a raft foundation, pod floor, waffle slab or floating foundation, that delivers real benefits over a conventional concrete floor and foundations.

A grillage of beams within the concrete slab provides a stiffer and stronger final product than a conventional 100mm concrete slab on grade, and because of its inherent strength, a deepened perimeter footing can usually be omitted.

Key Features

Speed of installation offers labour savings and reduced build time.
Minimal excavation
Suitable for poor sites with low soil-bearing capabilities
Improved thermal performance (R-value)
Easy installation of services
CodeMark certified and BRANZ appraised

Scope of Use

SuperSlab can be used on all ground conditions regardless of your land classification, including:

Residential foundation and floor slabs
Shed floors
Small commercial buildings
Warehouses

Statement of Building Code Compliance

SuperSlab is BRANZ appraised and CodeMark certified.

Other Performance Attributes

Super Slab includes QPOD as a sustainable alternative to traditional polystyrene pod void formers within the raft foundation system. Polystyrene pods can be directly substituted for QPOD, with four pods replicating the standard 1100mm x 1100mm sqm and 220mm deep polystyrene pods.

Key benefits include:

Made from recycled material and 100% recyclable with zero landfill waste
Reduced site waste
Efficient transportation and storage (pods for a 180sqm home can be transported on the back of a ute or single-axis trailer)
Ease of installation in windy conditions
A CodeMark-certified plastic pod raft flooring system
Integrated 40mm spacer eliminates the need for mesh chairs
Stability - pods interlock to stay put during concrete pour and windy conditions
