CONCRETE SLABS VS WAFFLE PODS
The Past – Concrete Slabs
Most concrete slabs usually required the back-breaking digging of trenches, with the added difficulty of:
- trying to accurately estimate the amount of concrete used, and
- disposing of the excavated rubble
And if it rained, work had to be stopped – and the trenches and reinforcement had to be dried and cleaned.

- environmentally friendly (less waste)
- less expensive
- can still be used in the wet
