The Advantages of using Hollow Core Slabs are as follows
- 35 - 40 % reduction in concrete as compared to an In-situ slab of the same thickness.
- Reduced total cost of ownership due to the possibility of redesign of columns, beams and foundation of smaller sections.
- Form Work and Shuttering is completely avoided.
- High speed of construction, upto 1000 Sqm/Day
- Offers more space without columns for better utilization of buildings.
- Smooth soffit finish without requirement of plastering
- Cost reduction due to reduced concrete requirement and earlier realization of the project leading to better profits.
