The 5 Step process of engineering intelligence meeting practical construction – providing a ready to build foundation solution for all Soil Conditions.
Step 1:
We design the MuscleSlab to suit a client’s specific requirements and include:
Meets all Council requirements
Australian Standards for loadings
Geotech investigation results (includes a GEOViz report which is a pictorial representation of site information)
Architectural plan and layout
Electrical, heating and plumbing inserts to suit planning for kitchens, bathrooms and laundry
A garage or additional outbuildings if required.
Step 2:
We screw in flexible tubular steel piles fitted with patented, multi-turn, helix-screw tips.
Structurally much better than a slab without piles
Tubular steel piles are more ductile than concrete filled piles providing additional flex
Driven non-ductile monolithic piles such as timber or concrete have little flexibility with ground movement
Driven monolithic piles cause vibrations during installation while installation of tubular steel piles result in no vibration
Screw piles result in no soil waste at the surface thus providing little disturbance to suspect ground below
Environmentally conscious as excess lengths may be cut and rewelded for use elsewhere
All materials commonly sourced for speed and cost saving.
All Screw Piling is done by Expert Approved Contractors.
Step 3:
We create the formwork platform and set thermal foam inserts in place.
Vapour barrier to protect against rising damp
Foam blocks provide superior thermal insulation for the home against ground temperatures
Conduits installed to suit your layout plan
Prefabricated steel reinforcements and high strength concrete create the ribbing mathematically calculated to deliver optimum strength to the slab
All materials are locally available material sources from local suppliers
Materials are chosen for speed and economy
Step 4:
We pour a MuscleSlab on flexible feet.
Ready to build single layer ribbed slab is strong and quick to build using less concrete than a double slab system
Suitable for any size house or garage with the slab modules configured to your desired footprint.
The 12Lean MuscleSlab being suitable for single storey brick veneer or timber framed and clad tiled roof house
The 16Heavy MuscleSlab being suitable for double storey brick and concrete slab construction with brick veneer or timber framed and clad tiled roof construction upstairs
Step 5:
The resulting MuscleSlab is ready for your builder.
Is maintenance free – will offer decades of service
Mechanically superior to withstand movement and loads in all soil types.
Comfort in knowing that you have invested in the strongest most proficient known system specifically designed for all soil types.
Looks good as poured but is adaptable as a suitable base for all of your decorating needs
