## Shear Walls
|
||
|
||
Shear walls span the height of a building.
|
||
|
||
Those around elevator shafts form a "shear core".
|
||
|
||
## Suspended Slab
|

|
||
> * [Concrete Slab | Different types of Slabs in Construction](https://www.constructioncost.co/slabs-in-construction.html)

> * [Concrete Slab Types – Construction, Cost, and Applications – theconstructor.org](https://theconstructor.org/practical-guide/concrete-slab-construction-cost/28153/)
|
||
|
||
### 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](https://finfrock.com/).

> [!quote] [DualDeck® by FINFROCK | Precast Concrete Building System](https://finfrock.com/dualdeck-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.
