BBA Agrément Certificate
Certificate type
Collapsible void former for use under reinforced concrete floor slabs. The product has a number of variables including panel depth and loading characteristics.
Designed for use beneath reinforced concrete floor slabs to protect against the potential effects of ground heave.
Comprising of a cellular construction of moulded expanded polystyrene combined with a robust polypropylene board, which has been designed and tested to tight tolerances to achieve the specified performance characteristics. It is available in a variety of depths and grades to suit the most commonly encountered combinations of soil heave potential and concrete depths.
Features and benefits:
Application:
Designed for use beneath reinforced concrete floor slabs to protect against the potential effects of ground heave.
