ComFlor® 100
ComFlor® 100, has a very strong profile shape and offers the capability to span up to 4.5 metres without props. Designed particularly for continental european application, the ComFlor® 100 also brings considerable benefits to the British designer looking for longer unpropped spans. The profile is not suitable for use with shear stud connectors.
No temporary props
ComFlor® 100 can carry wet concrete and construction loads to 4.5 metres without temporary propping, depending on slab depth, thereby leaving a clear area beneath the floor under construction. Further savings of labour and prop hire are also realised.
Large concrete volume reduction
Although a deep slab is required, the ComFlor® 100 profile greatly reduces the volume of concrete needed and thus the cost and weight of concrete.
Suitable for traditional construction
ComFlor® 100 is suitable to be placed onto masonry walls or standard design non-composite steel beams.

Volume and weight table notes
- Deck and beam deflection (i.e. ponding is not allowed for in the table).
- Deck and mesh weight is not included in the weight of concrete figures.
- Density of concrete is taken as:
• Normal weight (wet) 2400 kg/m3
• Normal weight (dry) 2350 kg/m3
• Lightweight (wet) 1900 kg/m3
• Lightweight (dry) 1800 kg/m3
ComFlor® 100 is not designed for use with shear studs (i.e. not for composite beam design).
