Abstract:

Abstract: A novel and inventive structural system for concrete slabs, called plastic voided slabs, has been developed. This system incorporates plastic voids within the reinforced concrete slab, resulting in a lighter self-weight for the structure without compromising its load-bearing capacity compared to a solid slab. This study aims to compare the design process of plastic voided slabs with that of reinforced concrete solid flat slabs. Specifically, the design of typical bays with identical thickness is analyzed to assess the differences between the two systems.

Abstract The construction industry’s impact on global carbon emissions necessitates sustainable design practices. This study examines the structural, environmental, and economic implications of concrete slab design by comparing practical and efficient approaches. This study aims to evaluate the reinforcement requirements, embodied carbon, and cost implications of two-way slab-on-beam structures. Concrete slabs were constructed for the beams arranged in a 3 × 3 bay arrangement, reflecting the typical parameters of an office building.

Abstract:

Over the past decades, there has been a tremendous improvement in the concrete placement technology in Uganda. The methods have moved from being manual to the use of concrete pumps. A concrete pump is capable of pumping high volumes of concrete per minute. This implies that for small volume slabs before the setting of concrete, the whole weight of the fresh concrete of the upper slab, formwork, and props is transferred to the lower supporting slab. During construction, slabs are stacked with materials like bricks, blocks, sand, and aggregates. Construction loads such as block loads and loads d

Therefore, this research aims to select a preferable slab system with the least construction cost for a shopping mall.

Abstract: When designing a reinforced concrete structure a primary design limitation is the span of the slabbetween the columns. Designing large spans between columns often requires very thick slabs thereby increasing the weight of the structure by requiring use of larger amounts of concrete. Heavier structures are less desirable than light weight structures in seismically active regions because a larger dead load for a building increases the magnitude of inertia forces which the structure must resist as larger dead load contributes to higher seismic weight.

Abstract:

Reinforced concrete (RC) flat slabs are widely employed in modern construction, and accurately predicting their load-carrying capacity is crucial for ensuring safety and reliability. Existing design methods and empirical equations still exhibit discrepancies in determining the ultimate load capacity of flat slabs. This study aims to develop a robust machine learning model, specifically the M5P model tree, for predicting the punching shear capacity of a RC flat slab without shear reinforcement. A comprehensive dataset of 482 experimentally tested flat slabs without shear reinforcement was gathe

Abstract:

Concrete pavements are characterized by their high durability and low conservation costs. However, concrete production causes large amounts of harmful emissions. In this context, short slab pavements allow us to reduce the slab thickness and the amount of concrete used in their construction. These benefits are only valid if the design assumptions are fulfilled, one of which is the provision of enough Load Transfer Efficiency (LTE) by the aggregate interlock. However, the current design method for short slabs does not relate the LTE with the Crack Width (CW) under the joints. This can jeopardiz

The world is currently heading towards sustainability by reducing the amount of concrete, thus reducing the total unit weight. Moreover, design construction requires materials with a higher strength-to-weight ratio. Ribbed slabs and lightweight concrete (LWC) are considered two leading sustainability facilities. This research developed an experimental study to evaluate the effects of concrete type, steel reinforcement ratio, the geometry of ribs, voiding ratio, and slab type on the structural behavior of one-way ribbed slabs.

Abstract:

Canadian codes allow the design of concrete deck slabs of slab-on-girder bridges by taking account of the internal arching action that develops in these slabs under concentrated wheel loads in particular. Provided that certain prescribed conditions are met, a deck slab is deemed to have met the design criteria if it is provided with a top and a bottom layer of steel reinforcement with each layer consisting of an orthogonal mesh of steel bars in which the area of cross section of the bars in each direction is at least 0.3% of the effective area of cross section of the deck slab.

In Lebanon and many other countries where structures are vulnerable to impact loads caused by accidental rock falls due to landslides, specifically bridges with hollow core slab, it is mandatory to develop safe and efficient design procedures to design such types of structures to withstand extreme cases of loading.

Generally for any construction, normal conventional concrete is used to obtain required strength as per design. In the construction industry, now a day’s many construction techniques are in practice to minimise the self weight of concrete, thereby reducing the size of structural elements. One of the most widely adopting techniques is use of light weight concrete. But use of these light weight concrete do not fulfil the strength requirement as per the design of the structure. Hence it is used only as non-load bearing structural elements in the field. In view of this, in this study the attempt h

Abstract:

This study presents punching shear design method of voided slab in accordance with arrangement of voids around columns. According to previous studies, the slab-column connection of voided slabs is weaker than that of the solid slab due to the lack of cross-sectional area of concrete by voids. In this study, it is assumed that the arrangement of voids exert influence on the punching shear strength of voided slabs. To verify the assumption, finite element analysis was conducted related with previous test results. The variable of FE analysis was a distance between voids and column face. Based on

The structural design of ultrathin whitetopping (UTW) requires precise predictions of the loading stresses in the concrete slabs. A plate finite element model (FEM) is not used for structures with UTW because the model is not able to account for the asphalt subbase behaviors and the mechanical interaction between the concrete slab and asphalt subbase. A three-dimensional FEM (3DFEM) was used for the stress calculation of UTW. To take into account the mechanical interaction at the interface between the concrete slab and asphalt subbase as well as the load transfer across the joint, a general in

With a 20m span slab as an example, a comparative study is conducted on the concrete voided slab pretensioned with different tendons of CFRP or steel. The analysis shows that the concrete voided slab pretensioned with CFRP tendons is feasible in engineering.

To the knowledge of the author, all reported laboratory and field tests on deck slabs exploring its arching action under applied loads have been conducted by measuring strains in the bottom transverse reinforcement midway

Slabs with continuous drop panels between column lines facilitate formwork, make long spans possible in addition to increase punching shear resistance around supports and provide unobstructed spans with minimum structural floor depth resulting in lower floor-to-floor heights. The moment distribution in such slabs is different from that in conventional flat plates or slabs with drop panels systems. Dimensioning according to the current provisions in CSA A23.3-94 is problematic because the continuous drop panels are subject to moments exceeding the minimum values allowed by the Code for conventi
