Shear Walls
Shear walls span the height of a building.
Those around elevator shafts form a "shear core".
Suspended Slab
[!info] Reference
Conventional Slab
Flat on both top and bottom faces
Post-Tensioned Slab
[!example] STRUCTURAL SLAB IS AN 8-INCH THICK UNBONDED POST-TENSIONED TWO-WAY SLAB UNLESS NOTED OTHERWISE.
Pan Deck Slab
[!info] Also Known As
- composite slab
- corrugated slab
Concrete is poured into a corrugated steel "pan". The corrugation and support allow for a substantially thinner slab.
[!example] STRUCTURAL SLAB IS 3 1/2 INCHES OF NORMALWEIGHT CONCRETE ON 3-INCH COMPOSITE STEEL DECK UNLESS NOTED OTHERWISE.
Other Suspended Slabs
These slabs achieve greater strength with complex formwork.
- Waffle Slab
- Ribbed Slab
Tunnel Form
In tunnel form construction, formwork is arranged to cast walls and slabs simultaneously
DualDeck
DualDeck is a proprietary construction method from Finfrock Design LLC.
[!quote] DualDeck® by FINFROCK | Precast Concrete Building System Comprised of two 2.5-in.-thick precast, prestressed concrete slabs joined with high-strength steel reinforcements, the finished component serves as both the floor and ceiling surfaces in a multi-level building. The built-in subsystems accelerate construction times and the accessible interstitial space simplifies lifetime maintenance.
The decks are poured and assembled at Finfrock's headquarters and delivered to the job site.
Specialty contractors for projects utilizing DualDeck assemblies must coordinate, fabricate, and deliver to Finfrock any components that must be set into the slabs or routed in the interstitial space, including outlet boxes, conduit, and fittings for electrical.
