60 mm floor slab is already provided together with

This means that the moulding is simpler and faster
and also that the contractor avoids costly and time
Consuming form works on site. Due to the large size
of the units, the simple propping (temporary support)
{is needed. In general, the basic construction cost is

(Bela luaARA FORM SLAB SYSTEM
The form slab system is a combination of precast
slab of 60 mm minimum thickness and a cast-in-situ
concrete topping cast onsite.
‘This structural system conforms to ACI Building
Cove Reauirements and other codes of practice.
Latice Girders (made of welded longitudiral top and
bottom bars and diagonal bars are embeded in the
precast element. These jattice gitders have mainly
3 functions: to stiffen the precast element during
handling and erection, also to provide an excellent
bond between the precast and cast-in-situ concrete,
and for lifting purpose.
The precast element also contains the necessary
bottom reinforcement of the composite section Le
the reinforcement is placed in both directions.
The precast formslabs can be produced in various
widths up toa maximum of 2.0 meters and length of
‘up 10.6.0 meters. Spans more than 6.0 meters and
Lup to 10.0 meters can be accomodated using 2 pre-
stressed form slab
Therefore, the final construction Is very rigid, stable
and safe
ARA FORM SLAB system is very suitable for villas,
apartments, offices, schools, hospitals and simiar
buildings. It can also be used when there is need for
ea lot of
30° 4 side support of stab or when th
‘openings in the slab.

The precast form slabs are siripped from steel mould
and erected on site, With its light weight, it only
requires smaller cranes 10 do the job. A slab with
7.2 meters in length can be easily handled by just
hooking in the outer latice girders.
Form slabs are lifted by means of a self-balancing
tackle or a combination of steel frame and wites.
PROPPING
The formslabs are erected on props with @ support
‘of wood running perpendicular to the slabs. Edge
propping is provided if bearing is less than 3.5 cm
‘at end support.

The ARA form slab system is one of the most modem
‘mould sysiem in the construction industry today.
As mentioned earlier, a minimem of 60nm.of the final
slab thickness with the necessary bottom reinforcement
‘means that S0% of the work is already done.
Bea)
Using ARA FORM SLAB isthe same as saving time.
Two men can erect 100 sam. of slab in about one
hour. complete with reinforcement. Openings and
ther provisions are alteady provided in the form slab
which means less manpower, time and cost.
Berne res
The bottom surface of the AKA FORM SLAB has a
‘ery smooth finish that it is ready for painting as soon
4 the props have been removed. With ARA FORM
SLAB, you save a lot of time and cost for painting
work,
