concrete flooring for warehouse and factories
Why Concrete Flooring Matters in Warehouses & Factories in KSA
Concrete flooring is the foundation of productivity and safety in industrial settings. For warehouses and factories in Saudi Arabia, floors must handle:
-
Extreme static loads like racking pillars bearing 7–8 tonnes on small contact areas
-
Heavy dynamic traffic—forklifts, pallet stackers, and especially VNA trucks increasing point pressure significantly
-
Mechanical precision, requiring minimal flatness deviations and dust-free surfaces to support automated systems
Key Components of Effective Industrial Concrete Flooring
1. Structural Design & Sub-grade Preparation
-
A rigid sub-base of 200–250 mm with level tolerances of 0–25 mm is essential
-
Soil compaction and vapor barriers reduce shrinkage and cracking CoGri Group Ltd+15Face Consultants+15Liquid Floors+15
2. Concrete Mix Specifications
-
Use 4,000–6,000 psi (28–40 MPa) mixes for strength and durability Evenson Concrete Systems+1
-
Control W/C ratio, use hard aggregates, and proper curing to resist abrasion Indus Arabia+7PDH Academy+7Concrete Network+7
3. Flatness & Joint Design
