Abstract
Beam and pot floor systems combine precast prestressed concrete beams and proprietary full depth open void or solid infiller blocks, otherwise known as 'pots', to achieve a flush soffit. The beams are manufactured on beds varying in length between 50m and 200m using slip form, extrusion or wet cast techniques. A high strength concrete is used to provide wide ranging span and loading capabilities. The specially designed infill pots achieve a high load bearing capacity and they can carry blockwork partitions as well as stud partitions.
