Industrial Floors and Slabs
Heavy-duty floors for high traffic, racking, and material handling. Built to spec and performance requirements.
Industrial floor and slab construction provides the working surface for manufacturing, distribution, and logistics operations throughout the DFW Metroplex. These floors must withstand forklift traffic, pallet storage, and equipment loads while meeting tolerance requirements for racking systems. We construct industrial floors that perform under demanding use.
Floor design specifications address multiple performance requirements. Thickness and reinforcement provide load capacity. Flatness tolerances support forklift operation and rack installation. Joint layout controls cracking while minimizing maintenance. We construct floors meeting all specified requirements.
Concrete mix design affects both placement and performance. We work with ready-mix suppliers to develop mixes that place well, finish properly, and achieve required strength. Special requirements-abrasion resistance, low shrinkage, fiber reinforcement-are incorporated as needed.
Placement techniques for industrial floors differ from standard concrete work. Laser screed equipment produces flat surfaces efficiently. Proper consolidation eliminates voids. Finishing creates surfaces suitable for their intended use. Our crews have the training and experience required for industrial floor construction.
Floor treatments after concrete placement may include densifiers, sealers, or coatings. We coordinate with flooring specialty contractors when treatments are required, ensuring proper surface preparation and timing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What floor flatness can you achieve?
We construct floors meeting specifications from FF25/FL20 through superflat FF100/FL50. Higher tolerances require specialized equipment and techniques. We verify capabilities match project requirements during preconstruction.
What causes floor joint problems?
Joint issues typically result from improper timing of sawcutting, inadequate depth, or excessive spacing. We control cutting timing, verify depth, and space joints appropriately for slab thickness. Proper construction minimizes joint maintenance.
How do you prevent floor cracking?
Crack control involves proper mix design, subgrade preparation, placement practices, and joint sawcutting. We implement all these measures to minimize cracking. Some cracking is inherent in concrete; joints control where cracks occur.
What reinforcement is used in industrial floors?
Reinforcement varies by specification-welded wire fabric, rebar, fiber reinforcement, or combinations. We install reinforcement per design, verifying proper position before concrete placement.
Can you repair or resurface existing industrial floors?
Repair options include crack filling, joint restoration, overlay, and section replacement. Approach depends on floor condition and performance requirements. We assess existing conditions and recommend appropriate solutions.
