Post-tensioned Floors

 

STYLISH SURFACE AREAS WITHOUT CRACKS OR SAWCUTS
Designers, builders, owners and end users of buildings are constantly looking for a more efficient environment in which they can operate. Structures built using unbonded post-tensioning systems have many advantages over traditional reinforced floors.

 

Advantages of a Post tensioned Floor Slab
  • Reduced slab thickness
  • Minimised cracking and saw joints
  • More durable floor surface
  • Enhanced construction speed
  • Easier to construct
  • Similar cost to conventional floors
STRESSFLOOR, THE REID SYSTEM

Reid’s release of StressFloor, an unbonded post-tensioned slab on grade concrete floor system for use in residential and light commercial applications, is a solution to the old adage of cracked and saw joint floors. For more information, download the Stressfloor brochure.

When designing with a post-tensioned system, it is better to consult Reid at the beginning of the design phase. We can provide you with recommendations and in most cases provide a design for your floor. At quote stage, we can put you in touch with an approved installer.
