Lightweight Concrete Roof Slabs

Dry screeds and dry fills.

Lightweight concrete roof slabs.

The design makes it cheaper. Standard concrete as a density of around 2300kg m3 and lightweight concrete generally has. Lightweight concrete roof tile eaglelite is our lightweight fire safe roof tile that is available in some of our most established profiles and colors. Light weight concrete slabs can be used universally.

The lwic systems are composed of either aggregate or cellular concrete. Our sub six profiles and our flat lightweight 720 lbs. Lightweight concrete is typically applied as composite slabs over vented metal decks that meet the requirements of astm a653 and are of the proper type and gauge to withstand the structural live and dead loads for the facility. It is designed for efficient construction of gradient and thermal insulating layers of flat roofs.

Lightweight concrete can also be applied as a topping slab over structural concrete decks. Boral has specially designed lightweight concrete using a non toxic treated polystyrene aggregate or by the use of cellular foam injection by specially trained applicators. Depending on local availability special lightweight aggregates may also be included in the design for enhanced strength capability. Profiles are a fraction of the weight of our conventional roof tiles and are perfect for re roof projects.

Light weight concrete slabs are available both with a raw and with a ground surface. Lightweight insulated concrete also known as lwic is a material intended for use as an insulation and substrate for support and attachment of roofing membranes on slope roofs. Researchers at the technical school eth zurich have constructed a unique lightweight concrete ceiling by mixing computational design 3d printing and prefabrication. Lightweight screeds and substrates.
