VERSATILE, SUSTAINABLE, STRONG - RAFT FOUNDATION FLOORING SYSTEM
An engineered raft flooring system that offers real benefits over a conventional concrete slab!
SuperSlab is an above ground engineered flooring system, commonly known as a raft 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.
Where to use it?
SuperSlab can be used on all ground conditions regardless of your land classification, including:

Super Slab has the following benefits over conventional floors and foundations:
QuickSet is an insulated, internally-braced, and permanent formwork system for raft foundations that can exist either as a fully-insulated system or as edge insulation alone.
This innovative type of formwork saves time and materials – no time wasted on stripping or removing formwork once the concrete is poured. By using insulation as the formwork and patented internal bracing mechanisms, QuickSet has simplified and improved the build process for foundations.
The patented system is a revolution in foundation design, with the incorporation of the insulation panel with permanent formwork. Designed to be suitable for 90mm, 140mm framing, and above, the system is highly adaptable.
READY Super Slab has a BRANZ apprasial and CodeMark Certification. Having a CodeMark Certification means building consent authorities will accept READY Super Slab as complying with the New Zealand Building Code (when conditions of CodeMark certificate are adhered to). You will still need to apply for building consent, however the CodeMark means no delays at council.
Documents required as per CodeMark Certification:
