Prestressed Hollow Core Slabs in Industrialized Construction

Prestressed Hollow Core Slabs are the backbone of 2026’s "Modular City" movement. These precast concrete elements feature longitudinal voids that reduce the self-weight of the slab by up to 40% without compromising structural integrity.

  • Structural Efficiency: Prestressing high-strength steel wires in the bottom flange allows these slabs to span up to 20 meters, making them ideal for parking structures and open-plan offices.

  • In-Slab Services: The hollow cores serve as ready-made ducts for HVAC, electrical wiring, and plumbing, significantly reducing on-site installation time.

  • Sustainability: By using less concrete and being manufactured in a controlled factory environment, these slabs contribute to a 20% reduction in a building’s total carbon footprint.
