Roof/Floor System
The Floor and Roof System produced by Royal Concrete Concepts has proven to be stronger, more durable and faster to install while costing less than traditional systems. Produced off-site at our production facility, the Floor and Roof System can be easily installed on steel and concrete structures. A panel can form the roof of a building or can simulataneously form the ceiling of one level and the floor of the next.
The embedded steel bar joists utilized in the Royal Floor and Roof System provide ample space for easily installing ventilation ducts, electrical lines and plumbing lines. You can choose from a variety of joist depths to facilitate the placement of trade requirements and ceiling attachments such as step-downs and coffers. Openings in any slab can be pre-cast at the production facility.
The Royal Floor System is fabricated in widths of up to 8 feet and lengths of up to 40 feet. It is typically composed of two 8" - 22" deep steel bar joists 48” apart which are embedded in 3” thick reinforced concrete. The open web bar joist has a bottom chord constructed with double structural angles that acts as an axially loaded tension member with smooth round bars used for diagonal web members. The diagonal web members acting in tension and compression are welded at the top with a longitudinal member embedded 1 1/2'” deep into a top chord comprising of a 3” concrete slab poured with 3000 psi concrete and reinforced with 6x6 welded wire mesh. The slabs are cast in continuously cambered steel forms to allow deflection control and result in a fine steel-float finish superior to poured-in-place concrete. Upon completion, the panels are transported to the building site and placed on top of pre-cast concrete panels, tilt-up panels or beams of the structure. They are then precisely leveled and welded together at the joist seat and parallel slab joints. The slab joints are then grouted. All materials meet and exceed standards and specifications for local and national codes.
