Taiping Floor System: Selection Guide for Cold Storage, Industrial Facilities, and Underground Garages
The Taiping system includes three technical lines: post-tensioned integrated floor, UHPC integrated floor, and UHPC long-lasting repair. Each is suited for different scenarios. This guide covers cold chain warehouses, industrial facilities, and underground garages, explaining core principles, applications, and restrictions, along with a selection matrix and self-check recommendations to help owners quickly identify the right floor solution.

Industrial floors are typically cut with joints every few meters as an industry practice. However, joints are not irreplaceable—they are a compromise solution to concrete shrinkage, leaving long-term issues such as spalling, hygiene contamination, and AGV interference. This article explains the origin and limitations of joints from the mechanism of concrete shrinkage, and then illustrates how post-tensioned integrated floor systems actively suppress cracking by applying pre-compression, extending joint spacing from ≤6 m to the order of 150 m.
