Key facts
Ecodome Plastic dome-shaped concrete forms are stay-in-place forms to create unreinforced or reinforced concrete slabs on grade.
Concrete is poured over the modular dome forms to create floating or structural grade supported slabs, partially supported or fully supported slabs on beams, piles or deep foundations. Ecodome slabs use less concrete and reinforcing than standard slabs with equivalent load-bearing capacity. The unique concrete geometry of the Ecodome creates an under-slab void that can be passively or mechanically vented to remove moisture and soil gases, protecting buildings against the ingress of harmful soil gases.
Ecodome Patented Forms have a unique connecting feature. Only Ecodome forms additional built-in plastic at all pressure point locations, and a central reinforced cone support of height equal to the element positioned in correspondence with the central region, guarantees the absorption of vibrations that occur during the finishing of the Ecodome aerated concrete floor slab.
