Abstract
Beam and block floor systems combine precast prestressed concrete beams and infill blocks to produce high quality economic ground and upper floors in housing and other building types. The beams are manufactured on beds varying in length between 50m and 200m using slipform extrusion or wet cast techniques. A high strength concrete is used to provide wide-ranging span and loading capabilities.
