Material Composition

• Typically made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or expanded polystyrene (EPS).
• HDPE pods are durable and resistant to impact and moisture.
• EPS pods offer lightweight construction and excellent thermal insulation properties.

Pod Dimensions

• Available in various sizes and configurations depending on project requirements.
• Common sizes include 300mm x 300mm, 400mm x 400mm, and larger dimensions as needed.
• Depths can vary based on slab thickness requirements, typically ranging from 100mm to 300mm.

Structural Design

• Designed with internal ribs and voids to reduce concrete usage while maintaining structural integrity.
• Grid pattern layout supports uniform distribution of loads across the slab.

Load-Bearing Capacity

• Capacity varies based on pod dimensions and material strength.
• Designed to support specific loads per square meter as per engineering specifications.

Reinforcement Mesh

• Made from galvanized steel or epoxy-coated steel for corrosion resistance.
• Available in various mesh sizes (e.g., 100mm x 100mm, 200mm x 200mm) and thicknesses (typically 4mm to 8mm).

Project Requirements

• Determine slab thickness, load requirements, and thermal insulation needs.
• Select waffle pod sizes and reinforcement based on structural calculations and design specifications.

Environmental Conditions

• Consider environmental factors such as soil type, groundwater levels, and climate conditions.
• Choose materials and accessories that offer durability and resistance to local weather conditions.

Compliance and Standards

• Ensure products meet relevant building codes and standards for structural integrity and safety.
• Verify compliance with environmental regulations for sustainable construction practices.

Installation and Maintenance

• Plan for efficient installation with proper alignment and spacing of waffle pods and accessories.

Composition

• EPS is made from expandable polystyrene beads that are expanded and molded into sheets.
• It consists of 98% air and 2% polystyrene, making it lightweight and highly insulative.

Characteristics

• Insulation: Excellent thermal insulation properties, reducing heat loss or gain in buildings.
• Lightweight: Easy to handle and install, reducing labor costs.
• Moisture Resistance: Resistant to moisture absorption, maintaining insulation performance.
• Versatility: Can be molded into various shapes and sizes for different applications.

Applications

• Used as insulation in walls, roofs, and floors to improve energy efficiency.
• Forms the core of insulated concrete forms (ICFs) for sustainable building practices.

Environmental Considerations

• Recyclability: Can be recycled into new EPS products or used as a filler material.
• Sustainability: Helps reduce overall energy consumption in buildings by providing effective insulation.
