QPOD™ Flooring System has aligned itself with Allied Concrete as an Eco-friendly alternative to the already tried and proven ‘Raft’ style floor configuration READY Super Slab.

READY Super Slab is an above ground engineered flooring system, commonly known as a raft floor foundation, pod floor, waffle slab or floating foundation, that delivers real benefits over a conventional concrete floor and foundations. A grillage of beams within the concrete slab provides a stiffer and stronger final product than a conventional 100mm concrete slab on grade, and because of its inherent strength a deepened perimeter footing can usually be omitted.

What Changes?

Already CodeMarked the READY Super Slab CodeMark is now also fully inclusive of the QPOD™ Flooring System. The 4x Closed sided QPODs joined together create the equivalent volume of a traditional polystyrene pod at 1.1 x 1.1m, nothing changes in the steel & mesh structure. Obviously a minimal addition of concrete is used when choosing QPOD™ equating to 0.0278m3 per pod (or; 0.0193m3 extra concrete per finished floor m2) this can be calculated using our QPOD™ volume calculator.

TC2 Floors?

CodeMarked READY Super Slab with QPOD™ Flooring System is based on the condition of “good ground”. Various aspects such as, floor design, soil type, ground strength, Liquefaction & seismic factors can fall beyond the scope of the CodeMark and will require additional engineering input and a Specific Engineered Design (SED). For full details on these boundaries please refer to Allied Superslab Technical Manual.
