Concrete work in Kathu
Kathu stands on Kalahari sand over calcrete, and loose sandy ground can be collapsible or low in bearing strength, so compaction and sometimes deeper footings are needed under slabs. Iron ore and manganese mining drives housing, complexes, offices and heavy industrial hardstand. Summers are fiercely hot, so pours start before dawn and need wet curing or a curing compound, while cold winter nights can give a light frost. Fine red sand also gets into mixes and joints if sites are not kept clean. Ready-mix is batched locally for mine work, but supply for small jobs may come from Kuruman or further, so expect long delivery distances and minimum loads.
Typical hollow core slabs requests in the area come from:
- Warehouses and factories: mezzanines, parking decks and multi-storey warehouse floors designed for higher loads
- New houses: long-span first floors for new houses with open-plan living spaces and a crane on site
- Complexes and apartment blocks: repeated floor and roof planks for apartment blocks, student housing and townhouse podiums
- Shops, offices and restaurants: floors for offices, schools and shops with long clear spans and fewer columns
- Family homes: wide-span floors for large homes where an engineer wants a flat soffit and few beams
- Farms and smallholdings: lodge and agricultural building floors, where delivery distance and crane access are checked first
