Hollowcore slab suppliers

Just Bob · 2010-01-04 15:14:55

Hi all, Can anyone recommend suppliers of hollowcore slabs for 1st floor of self build? Any issues with the placing of these slabs that I should be aware of? They are being supported by 4" walls with 9" at the joints. Thanks, BOB

Probably better stating the area you are located in.

Generally the block width as described should be sufficient but you will need an engineer to confirm this and you will also have to ensure that padstones are in place for the steel where necessary.
