Yibna Saw-cut

---

A traditional saw-cut floor is the most common industrial flooring system, designed with contraction joints cut into the slab shortly after placement. These cuts, typically placed in a grid, guide natural concrete shrinkage and help prevent uncontrolled cracking. 

Saw-cut floors are a cost-efficient solution for many facilities with standard load requirements. They rely on guided cracking through the saw cuts, creating predictable slab behavior when the subbase is stable. This makes them suitable for warehouses, workshops, and general storage areas where traffic and operational demands are moderate. 

Because saw-cut floors contain multiple joints, they may require more maintenance over time, especially in high-traffic environments where joint edges deteriorate. Their performance depends heavily on the quality of the ground beneath the slab. For clients seeking a simple, economical solution without high load demands, saw-cut floors remain a practical option.
