The floats
The choice of floats for a floating terrace or a base for a house depends on the weight of the structure that is planned to be placed on the platform. Floats are most often used for the construction of platforms with small loads - 1000L. By combining them in unlimited quantities, we can manufacture a platform with an impressive load-bearing capacity for your sauna or jacuzzi.
In the case of building a house, we always choose concrete floats - BP300 that have a bearing capacity of three tons. By combining multiple floats in one platform, we can provide stability for a whole house of 50 sqm or more.
Some examples of floating platforms with bearing capacity
Floating platforms can be of any size and bearing capacity. It all depends on the type and number of floats. Depending on your needs in size and bearing capacity, we will select and design an individual version specifically for your needs.
