Hollow Core Concrete Pty Ltd

Because production occurs off-site when using Hollow Core Precast Concrete Beams and Columns, each product is put through a rigorous prestressing process. Furthermore, by choosing a precast concrete product, there is no need to prop the beams, and no need for expensive on-site formwork. Hollow Core Concrete Precast Columns and Beams are available in a range of cross sections, including an inverted T beam, inverted L beam, and rectangular beam, so that even though precast, the beams and columns offer maximum design versatility.

FEATURES
Rugged and durable + Manufactured off-site + Prestressed + No need for expensive and inconvenient on-site formwork + Wide range of cross-sections for design flexibility

RANGE
Inverted T Beam + Inverted L Beam + Rectangular Beam

  • 17-metre span for Precast Carparks enlarge

    17-metre span for Precast Carparks

    The 17 m long and 400 mm thick span plank from Hollow Core is perfectly suited to carpark design applications. Maximum flexibility can be obtained in terms of floor layout, through elimination of loadbearing components. It spans up to 17 m to give an uncluttered, clear space. Hollow Core delivers complete precast structural solutions which meets specified construction requirements. Feasibility and design solutions have been designed by Hollow Core’s specialist in-house design team utilising the company’s long term expertise and superior quality precast concrete products.

    FEATURES
    Elimination of columns and beams + Reduction of site labor costs + Speedy construction + Maximum use of floor area for high-density parking

  • SoundTrap Absorptive Noise Barriers enlarge

    SoundTrap Absorptive Noise Barriers

    SoundTrap is an open cellular low-density cementitious non-structural material which absorbs, instead of reflecting noise. This makes SoundTrap ideal for projects such as noise abatement on freeways, along with other transport applications. Owing to concrete-like properties, SoundTrap falls under the category of mouldable products. Special coatings, paints, and pigments can also be applied, to prevent the cells becoming closed due to rain, thereby providing an all weather acoustic barrier.

    SPECIFICATIONS
    Noise Reduction Co-efficient: 0.95 + Sound Transmission Class: 51 + Density: 512 to 800 Kg per cu. M + Compressive Strength: 2 to 5 Mpa

  • Hollow Core Floor Slabs enlarge

    Hollow Core Floor Slabs

    Hollow Core Floor Slabs are prestressed, precast concrete slabs usually utilised for strong, lightweight structural flooring. Each slab has between 4 and 6 longitudinal cores running through it, the primary purpose of which is to decrease weight and material inside the floor, while maintaining maximum strength. To further increase the strength, each slab is reinforced with 12mm steel strands running longitudinally. There are a range of slab depths available, chosen on the basis of project requirements, depending on loading performance and span.

    FEATURES
    No propping, long spans + Flexible in terms of design + Quick construction + Lightweight structures + Trimmer beans can get used

    SPECIFICATIONS
    Design Width : 1200 mm + Self-weight: around 426 Kg/sq. Km + No. of cores: 4 to 6

    RANGE
    Slab Depths: 200 mm, 220 mm, 300 mm, 320 mm

  • Mini Slabs enlarge

    Mini Slabs

    Hollow Core Concrete Mini Slabs are perfect for projects involving short spans up to 6.5 metres, which need thin flat slabs. The prestressed slabs are available in thicknesses of 115, 95, or 75 mm, with the option of a 50 mm reinforced topping screed. The S6/7-205 mini slab, for example, consists of 6 cores, is 205 mm in depth, and contains 7 strands of reinforcement.

  • Penetrations and floor voids enlarge

    Penetrations and floor voids

    Penetrations and floor voids can easily be designed and incorporated within Hollow Core slabs. Penetration widths completely depend upon the position of penetrations, as well as the span and load requirements of the structural layout. Smaller service pipe penetrations can usually be accommodated after the slabs have been placed, while trimmer beams might be needed if bigger penetrations are needed.

  • Precast Bridges enlarge

    Precast Bridges

    Precast Bridges by Hollow Core Concrete are a stable, speedy, and cost-effective alternative to other standard bridge constructions. The process of construction is rapid, so the bridge can be completed and ready to use within days instead of weeks. The construction procedure involves preparation of footings and abutments as is case for decking bridges and beams, and for farm or rural requirements, hollow core concrete planks could be easily lifted into place before mounding up the footings. Hollow Core Concrete Precast Bridges are the smart option for any bridging application, small or large span, light or heavy traffic.

  • Precast Stairs enlarge

    Precast Stairs

    Precast stairs can be used even with respect to in-situ stairs, with common applications including safety/fire stairs, and access to working levels during the construction process. The off-site production of Hollow Core Concrete Precast Stairs permits for speedy change in stair profiles, and installation and erection can both be completed easily and with minimum interruption.

    FEATURES
    Easy installation + Structurally very safe + Can be used for indoor or outdoor applications + Ideal for internal access to upper floors during construction works + Cost effective + Manufactured off-site

  • ThermoDeck enlarge

    ThermoDeck

    Making use of a buildings thermal mass is an extremely effective way to maintain stable and comfortable temperatures. Heat flow and temperature change is the slowest via heavyweight, dense construction materials like Hollow Core Concrete’s ThermoDeck. After these dense materials reach maximum ‘internal temperature’, the slow release of heat aids in maintaining a comfortable room temperature after the initial heat input. External variations of temperature are not transferred to the inside of the building as the maximum heat level is delayed until counterbalanced by colder overnight temperatures.

    FEATURES
    Reduce energy consumption and environmental impact + Occupant Satisfaction + Design flexibility + Reduction in capital costs + Reduction in maintenance, operating, and running costs

  • Trimmer Beams enlarge

    Trimmer Beams

    Hollow Core Concrete Trimmer Beams permit for the inclusion of very large floor voids, without the need to add additional columns, with adjacent planks on either side of the void designed to carry the extra imposed load. Hollow Core Concrete Trimmer Beams can be designed to appear as a steel lintel, and can also be utilised as an in-situ concrete beam, that can be cast together with topping screed. This trimmer beam range is especially designed to support both Hollow Core’s precast concrete slabs an also any adjoining precast stairs.
