- Standard panel size of 1200mm (width) x 3000mm (length) x Custom thickness in mm
- Thickness available in 150mm, 190/200mm, 260mm, 290mm or as required/specified by the Client or his/her engineer
- Electro-welded high tensile structural steel wire mesh on both sides of the EPS core for meeting requirements of BS 8110: Structural use of Concrete. Therefore, no need for specifying separate BRC mesh reinforcement
- 3.0mm high tensile steel wire @ 70mm spacing transversely (As=101mm2/m; fy>600N/mm2)
- 2.5mm high tensile steel wire @ 100mm spacing longitudinally
- EPS density >15kg/m3

- 2.5mm high tensile steel wire @ 100mm spacing longitudinally
- EPS density >15kg/m3
Ideal For
- EPS ribbed floor slab:- The EPS ribbed slab’s dead load is 4.33KN/m2 (using 150mm thick EPS floor panel) vs. 6.1KN/m2 for a 150mm thick solid slab; 25% lesser load. A 150mm thick EPS floor panel weighing 15kg replaces 30 hollow blocks each weighing 15kg (450kg)
- Greatly reduces dead-weight structure loads by upto 30%
- Lesser reinforcement steel required (50% less than solid slab) owing to reduced loads from lighter structural members
- Fast construction (1.6 times faster than conventional technologies) due to ease of handling
