High-Strength Concrete Floor Beams for Beam & Block Flooring
Durable, fire-resistant, and precision-engineered concrete beams for high-performance structural flooring.
At Kennings, we supply premium prestressed concrete floor beams designed for use in "beam and block" flooring systems. This method is widely regarded as one of the most efficient ways to construct a high-quality ground or first floor, offering a solid, level base that is ready for immediate use. Whether you are working on a residential development or a heavy-duty industrial project, our concrete beams provide the structural integrity your build demands.
The Advantages of Beam & Block Concrete Floors
Concrete floor beams are the backbone of modern construction. By moving away from traditional timber or poured concrete, you gain several key advantages:
- Unmatched Fire Resistance: Concrete is inherently non-combustible, providing superior fire protection compared to timber joists.
- Superior Sound Insulation: The high density of our concrete beams significantly reduces noise transmission between floors, making them ideal for multi-occupancy buildings.
- Rot and Damp Proof: Unlike timber, concrete beams are immune to wet or dry rot, woodworm, and damp, ensuring a floor that lasts a lifetime.
- Speed of Installation: Our beams are delivered to your site ready to be laid, requiring no specialist skills and allowing for all-weather construction.
Available Concrete Beam Profiles
We stock a range of depths and widths to suit different load requirements and spans:
- 175mm Deep Standard Beams: The industry standard for most domestic and light commercial applications.
- 175mm Deep Wide Beams: Designed for increased load-bearing capacity and broader spans.
- 225mm Deep Heavy-Duty Beams: Ideal for industrial projects or areas requiring maximum structural support.
Custom Made for Your Project
All our concrete floor beams are made to order to ensure they meet the specific engineering calculations of your site. This precision manufacturing reduces on-site cutting and waste, saving you both time and money.
