Design of Reinforced Concrete Slabs

1996
Reinforced concrete slabs are used in floors, roofs and walls of buildings and as the decks of bridges. The floor system of a structure can take many forms such as in situ solid slabs, ribbed slabs or precast units. Slabs may span in one direction or in two directions and they may be supported on monolithic concrete beams, steel beams, walls or ...

Bamboo-concrete Composite Slabs

IABSE Congress Reports, 2012
<p>Bamboo is a natural material that is highly sustainable and has very favourable material properties, specifically high longitudinal strength and low density. This paper presents a new concept for the use of bamboo that specifically exploits its high tensile strength.

Bionic Structures for Innovative Concrete Slabs

IABSE Reports, 2015
<p>The adaption of natural structures in technical systems leads to highly efficient and sustainable constructions. Especially for concrete slabs, bionic structures can be applied into the inner and to the exterior structure, which leads to improved lightweight bearing systems with a natural flow of forces.

Prestressing Optimization of Concrete Slabs

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1991
An algorithm to minimize prestressing steel in concrete slabs is presented; it is based on elastic theory and uses the finite element method. The influence‐line method and the equivalent‐load approach are reviewed and the latter is employed to compute the effects of prestressing.

Gas transport through concrete slabs

Building and Environment, 2006
Abstract The ability of mat slabs (foundations) to shield in-door air space from contaminants vapor or/and gaseous pollutants migration from the subsurface has been explored. An expert system that employs the Dusty Gas Model (DGM) has been developed to assess the steady state, isothermal, and isobaric gas transport through concrete mat foundations ...

Punching shear in concrete slabs

International Journal of Mechanical Sciences, 1999
Punching shear in concrete slabs is a serious problem in certain structural systems, such as flat slabs. Current analysis is based either on empirical and simplified analytical techniques or on theoretical models, mainly based on the theory of plasticity.

Ground bearing concrete slabs

2003
Ground bearing concrete floors, industrial concrete hardstandings and concrete highway pavements have not, in the past, been perceived as a single type of structural element and their construction has taken place independently of each other. This is in spite of their obvious commonality in the areas of design, materials, geotechnical appreciation and ...
