◊

Compressive strength of floor increases by upto 60% resulting in higher structural strength & therefore durability.

◊

Tensile strength increases by @ 70%.

◊

Cement consumption is reduced to the extent of 40%, as no cement is required separately for finishing the surface.

◊

Abrasion resistance of the floor increases by @ 60% resulting in less wear & tear of the floor surface.

◊

Permeability is reduced as a result of which liquids falling on the floor have less detrimental effect on the concrete.

◊

Impact strength is increased.

◊

Shrinkage of concrete is reduced & the floor warps less.

◊

Numbers of joints are reduced as this method allows long strip floor as against conventional checkered method.

◊

Floors can be put to use much earlier because of lesser curing time.

◊

Water/cement ratio is reduced by @ 18%.
