How It Works
The prestressed beam and block flooring system consists of two main components:
1. Pre-stressed Concrete Beams: These are manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure high strength and durability. The beams are designed to span across the room (beam to beam) without any prop support.
2. Concrete Blocks (Filler Blocks): The blocks are placed between the beams to create a solid and level surface. They are lightweight yet strong, ensuring stability and ease of handling.
