Benefits for the Home Owner when your home is built using Hambro

Simplicity
Fast and easy. The Hambro joists are customer manufactured to suit particular job conditions and are easily installed. It is important to remember that the Hambro joist modular spacing can be adjusted to suit varying conditions.

Easy Installation
The Hambro forming system provides a rigid working platform. Masonry walls or tie beams may be filled, when required, using the Hambro floor as a working deck. The Hambro floor supports it self during installation, so extra support jacks are not necessary

Rigidity
Shallower concrete thickness can be used because of the increased rigidity of the system resulting from the composite action. In addition the interlocking of concrete with steel provides excellent lateral diaphragm action with the composite joists acting as stiffeners for the entire system.

Flexibility
The wide Hambro joist spacing allows greater flexibility for mechanical engineers and contractors. Standard pipe lengths can be threaded through the Hambro web system – this means fewer mechanical joints, and easy chasing of plumbing and electrical services.

Veratility
The Hambro system can be used with all types of framing; from concrete walls to wood or steel.

Speed
Not only is the floor installed and poured very fast, but the sub-trades can closely follow Hambro, thereby shortening completion time.

Efficient
The roll-bars and plywood sheets are reusable There is very little waste material. Everything is either used in the floor or can be re-used on another floor.
