pre cast concrete slabs (Buriram area?)

Featured Replies

Good morning,

I am looking for precast slabs to span 4 meters and enough for 12 meters long.  That is a opening of 4x12 meters.  Top will have a screed but underside will remain exposed and must be neat.  Delivered by truck crane and placed about 2.50 height meters onto posts and ring beams.  No inside beams previewed so the span must be 4 meters clear. We plan to put 2 - 4x4 buildings on top at either end an have a 4x4 open area between for outside living and viewing the pond Nong Tik beside.  (I know that means pond pond Tik but not everybody does).  My Thai language skills are limited and complicated by this village speaking Laos. We are in Ban Mai Chaiyaphot about 100 km north of Buriram town.

 

For the 2 buildings I would prefer nice looking wooden structures made of red wood but not teak due to budget restraints.  I do not think they can be put in place complete by crane but local (Thai) experts can help with that advice please.  Road in front is a small one so big trucks and cranes will have difficulty getting to the site even though the road immediately in front is good concrete, straight and 4 meters wide.  My gate is 4 meters wide.  The problem will be getting to the site through the village, Ban Nong Waeng.

 

So that is 2 questions.  Supply and deliver precast slabs spanning 4 meters and where to find 2 - 4x4 nice looking wood buildings to put on top at about 2,5 meters height.

 

We have started work but there is no rush for delivery.  We are building a modest pool and terrace before the slabs and houses will be required.

  Thanks in advance for any help or ideas.

We are at 15°34'09.4"N 102°51'57.5"E.  Visitors welcome, within reason, and we speak Thai, Laos, English and bad French.  I am teetotal and do not smoke so there will be no beer or anything stronger on offer.  Thanks in advance for any help or ideas.
 
 
Hi, I suppose you have scale drawings of your proposed set up? Putting a couple of pictures with the post could help.

Can the delivery vehicles get under all the power lines etc without too much trouble?

And a stupid question I know, but why not build like the locals have built?

Global House, DoHome, Thai Watsadu etc. or any building material supply company will have 4 meter planks and if you need to put them 2.5 metres up then any crain hire company will rent a crain if the building supply truck crain isn't big enough.
