Structural concrete is a type of concrete used in the building process as part of the structure or used to carry part of the structure’s load. It’s different from poured concrete, commonly used for paving driveways. It’s imperative that structural concrete be installed by experienced professionals.

Here is a list of concrete structural components that Affordable Concrete Solutions can create:

• Substructure: These include concrete forms under the soil’s surface, such as the basement or foundation.
• Superstructure: The superstructure is the above-ground structure. This group includes the main building and roof.
• Slabs: Concrete slabs are most common when constructing a concrete floor or roofing.
• Beams: Beams are long reinforcements under the slabs that transfer the loads to the existing concrete columns below.
• Columns: Columns are vertical beams that help keep the slabs from dipping due to the above load.
• Walls: These can be exterior or interior walls, usually consisting of vertical slabs or poured concrete into formwork.
• Footings: Footings are pads or beams directly on top of the soil at the job site that provide a solid base to place the rest of the structural concrete.
