Beam and block flooring

Beam and Block is a flooring system composed of pre-stressed concrete beams, with standard building blocks laid between the beams. Laid together with purpose made split course and utilising our professional fixing teams, this helps to generate a comprehensive flooring package. With the added design support we can help you achieve a value added flooring solution.

Insulated Infill blocks can be used to achieve improved insulation values within the floor and solid tray blocks can be used to achieve the robust detail for upper floors.

Benefits of beam and block floors

• Easy to handle, quick to install 
  Beams and blocks can be easily handled by forklifts or cranes. Smaller lengths can be manually handled, risk assessment permitting.
• Provides immediate working platform
  No need to wait for concrete slabs to cure. Grouted floors form an immediate platform to work from.
• Simple all weather form of construction
  There is no need to worry about frost damage to floors.
• Draught proof, rot proof and fire resisting
  The durability of solid concrete, but  as simple to install as timber.
• Eliminates back fill and site compaction
  Expensive backfill and compaction are not required. Subsequent ground heave problems are removed.
• Good thermal insulation
  Insulation required by Building Regulations is easily achieved in the finishes.
