A Reinforced Concrete Slab is the one of the most important component in a building. It is a structural element of modern buildings. Slabs are supported on Columns and Beams.
RCC Slabs whose thickness ranges from 10 to 50 centimetres are most often used for the construction of floors and ceilings.
Thin concrete slabs are also used for exterior paving purpose.
In many domestic and industrial buildings a thick concrete slab, supported on foundationsĀ or directly on the sub soil, is used to construct the ground floor of a building.
In high rises buildings and skyscrapers, thinner, pre-cast concrete slabs are slung between the steelĀ frames to form the floors and ceilings on each level.
