Inverted prestressed ‘T’ shaped concrete beams

Inverted prestressed ‘T’ shaped concrete beams are laid down with standard concrete blocks between them providing an immediate working platform –beam & block floors provide good sound and thermal insulation and eliminate any problems caused by ground movement or sloped land.  In comparison to timber beams, they offer a longer span and are also maintenance free – unaffected by cold and wet weather. They are also draughtproof, damp proof and fire resistant.

Beam & block manufacturing capacity

Beams of standard size 30m lengths are cast in our beds. Unlike other suppliers we are then able to provide these beams in exact lengths, depending on your requirements. Using infra-red beams for ultra-precise measurements, the 11 beams are arranged to different lengths ready for cutting. Due to our unique cutting machine – it’s the only one in the country – we can cut 11 beams to different lengths at the same time. This means our production schedules are flexible to tie in with our clients’ demands.
