Estimated PolySlab Thicknesses Based On Concrete Slab Thicknesses
- Concrete slabs have to be designed and inspected by qualified engineers to ensure that the design loads of the slab meet the design of the concrete slabs.
- Consult with your engineers to determine if these blocks are suitable based on your slab design and slab loading requirements.
- Your engineer will specify the thickness of the blocks required.
- We will not supply PolySlabs to consumers unless they provide proof that an engineer has done a proper design.

PolySlab - Rib & Block Void Former Or Decking Blocks
- PolySlab Blocks are expanded polystyrene decking blocks or void formers used in rib & block slab construction.
- PolySlab Blocks are used instead of traditional ash blocks and they are placed between the concrete lintels to create a base on which the final concrete slab can be cast.
Benefits of using PolySlab Blocks instead of Ash Blocks
- PolySlab Blocks are lightweight and easy to lift in multi-story building projects.
- They significantly reduce they final weight of the concrete slab.
- They increase the rate at which concrete slabs can be prepared and constructed.
- Lightweight slabs reduce the amount of jacking supports required and the time that such supports need to remain in place.
- This means that work can resume faster during the curing period of the concrete slab.
- They increase the thermal and acoustic properties of the concrete slab.
