Mezzanine
Columns, beams, joists, deck.
A mezzanine consists of intermediate support columns, main beams, joists and a deck fastened to the joists with self-drilling fasteners. Support columns may be square tube sections or built-up I-sections as required by design.
Deck panel
Permanent shuttering.
The mezzanine deck panel carries only the dead load of the wet concrete, acting as permanent shuttering.
Foam concrete
Macro-cellular, and much lighter.
A macro-cellular cementitious set of cement, sand, flyash and foam. Perfect for areas that need to avoid the dead weight of conventional concrete — it reduces dead weight by up to 80%.
