A concrete core for a structural floor panel and a method for making the concrete core are disclosed. The concrete core may have substantially parallel and flat top and bottom surfaces that are separated by a desired thickness. At least one edge may be contiguous with the peripheries of the top and bottom surfaces. The concrete core may include a monolithic casting of material that has cement, coarse lightweight aggregate, water, fly ash and sand constituent ingredients. In various embodiments, the monolithic casting has a mass density in the range of 1650 - 1850 kilograms per cubic meter. A predetermined volume of reinforcing fibers may be added as a constituent ingredient during the casting process to give the concrete core additional strength characteristics. The reinforcing fibers may be steel, iron, polymer, made from other materials, or a combination thereof.
