Geo-Joist Structural Slab System – Upstate New York
What is Geo-joist?
Geo-Joist is CMI Structural Solutions’ engineered structural slab and stay-in-place formwork system, designed to span unstable soils, reduce concrete volume, and create energy-efficient, frost-protected foundations. Using EPS Geo-Joist forms with cast-in-place concrete joists, the system reduces slab thickness and weight while increasing strength and thermal performance.
It has also been used successfully for elevated boardwalks and docks and often helical piles are incorporated into the design to achieve a frost-protected foundation as shallow as 18” below grade. Each Geo-Joist project is designed by our team to meet your specific set of needs.
