Block
& Beam
The
average Block & Beam house slab requires 13.5 tonnes
of material. Ready mixed structural grade concrete is known
to generate 140kg of Co2. per tonne, the transportation
of Pre-cast concrete increases this by 26% this means the
average block & beam house slab has the potential to
release a staggering 3 tonnes of Co2!
An
environmentally responsible and cost effective alternative
would be Eco-Slab.
