T-BEAMS AND HOLLOW BLOCKS

T-beams and blocks

Sustainable and future-oriented construction

With the introduction of Carbstone blocks, our flooring systems have been completely redesigned to become more sustainable and environmentally friendly. Thanks to their CO2-negative properties and 100% recyclability, this innovative approach addresses the challenges of modern construction methods while reducing our ecological footprint.

How are composite floors made?

T-beams and Carbstone filling elements are laid and reinforced with rebar.
A layer of concrete is poured over the floor, creating a unified structure. The concrete acts as a wedge between the beam and the filling element, while also providing a solid compression layer.
Props must be installed before assembly. Prefer to work without props? Use reinforced T-beams with prestressed reinforcement and lattices.
Thanks to the Carbstone filler blocks, the final CO2 impact is significantly reduced.

Installation

A composite floor system made with T-beams and Carbstone filler pots can be installed easily and efficiently. The placement can be done manually, without the need for a crane. Thanks to its flexible application, the system is suitable for all types of buildings – whether for new construction projects or the renovation of older buildings or monuments, at any level.

With the innovative Carbstone solution, the installation process not only contributes to a solid construction structure but also reduces the ecological impact.

T-beams

T-beams are manufactured by pouring concrete into T-shaped molds, giving them exceptionally high dimensional accuracy. The reinforcement is then prestressed, ensuring excellent performance. The small dimensions of these T-beams allow for optimal utilization of primary materials. In practice, the construction elements are placed parallel, generally with an average spacing of 60 cm, and in some cases in pairs.

TYPE	DIMENSIONS
B111	From 1.00 to 3.20m
B112	3.30m
B113	From 3.40 to 4.10m
B114	From 4.20 to 5.10m
B115	From 5.20 to 5.50m
B116	From 5.60 to 6.30m
B117	From 6.40 to 7.20m

Blocks

The filler blocks, made from 100% sustainable Carbstone, serve as the formwork for the T-beams and fill the floor. They are designed to perfectly accommodate both the load and span, offering excellent fire-resistant properties.

When constructing a composite floor, the blocks are placed between the T-beams. A layer of concrete is then poured over them, acting as a compression layer and solidifying the floor as a whole system. The blocks offer height variations from 12 to 16 cm, specifically designed for optimal load capacity and sustainability.
