Custom Crete manufactures High Strength Concrete Rib Beams which are a component of its

Engineer approved Rib and Block Flooring System.

The Rib Beams are an integral component of the Rib and Block system.

Custom Crete’s lintels are manufactured with a crimped prestressing rib beam wire (1550 -1700
MPa) according to SANS 1504 -1990.

Each Rib Beam contains 5 x 5mm diameter pre-stressed wires, which are prestressed to
approximately 75% of their ultimate tensile strength (UTS).

The Rib Beams are manufactured with shear connectors (made from 6mm round bar) placed at
approximately 800 / 1000mm.
