Beam and block
Beam and block is a construction method to support flooring, especially for ground floors as well as multi storey buildings.

Building envelope
A building envelope is the physical separator between the conditioned and unconditioned environment of a building including the resistance to air, water, heat, light, and noiseSyed, Asif.

Concrete
Concrete, usually Portland cement concrete, is a composite material composed of fine and coarse aggregate bonded together with a fluid cement (cement paste) that hardens over time—most frequently a lime-based cement binder, such as Portland cement, but sometimes with other hydraulic cements, such as a calcium aluminate cement.

Concrete cover
Concrete cover, in reinforced concrete, is the least distance between the surface of embedded reinforcement and the outer surface of the concrete (ACI 130).

Formwork
Formwork is temporary or permanent molds into which concrete or similar materials are poured.

Foundation (engineering)
A foundation (or, more commonly, base) is the element of an architectural structure which connects it to the ground, and transfers loads from the structure to the ground.

Hollow-core slab
A hollow core slab, also known as a voided slab, hollow core plank or simply a concrete plank is a precast slab of prestressed concrete typically used in the construction of floors in multi-story apartment buildings.

Pavement (architecture)
Pavement, in construction, is an outdoor floor or superficial surface covering.

Plattenbau
Plattenbau (plural: Plattenbauten, Platte: panel/ slab; Bau: building/ construction) is a building constructed of large, prefabricated concrete slabs.

Polystyrene
Polystyrene (PS) is a synthetic aromatic hydrocarbon polymer made from the monomer styrene.
New!!: Concrete slab and Polystyrene · See more »
Precast concrete
Precast concrete is a construction product produced by casting concrete in a reusable mold or "form" which is then cured in a controlled environment, transported to the construction site and lifted into place ("tilt up").
New!!: Concrete slab and Precast concrete · See more »
Prefabrication
Prefabrication is the practice of assembling components of a structure in a factory or other manufacturing site, and transporting complete assemblies or sub-assemblies to the construction site where the structure is to be located.

Rebar
Rebar (short for reinforcing bar), collectively known as reinforcing steel and reinforcement steel, is a steel bar or mesh of steel wires used as a tension device in reinforced concrete and reinforced masonry structures to strengthen and hold the concrete in compression.
New!!: Concrete slab and Rebar · See more »
Reinforced concrete
Reinforced concrete (RC) (also called reinforced cement concrete or RCC) is a composite material in which concrete's relatively low tensile strength and ductility are counteracted by the inclusion of reinforcement having higher tensile strength or ductility.

Shallow foundation
A shallow foundation is a type of building foundation that transfers building loads to the earth very near to the surface, rather than to a subsurface layer or a range of depths as does a deep foundation.
New!!: Concrete slab and Shallow foundation · See more »
Skyscraper
A skyscraper is a continuously habitable high-rise building that has over 40 floors and is taller than approximately.
New!!: Concrete slab and Skyscraper · See more »
Steel
Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon and other elements.
New!!: Concrete slab and Steel · See more »
Subsoil
Subsoil is the layer of soil under the topsoil on the surface of the ground.
New!!: Concrete slab and Subsoil · See more »
Thermal insulation
Thermal insulation is the reduction of heat transfer (i.e. the transfer of thermal energy between objects of differing temperature) between objects in thermal contact or in range of radiative influence.
New!!: Concrete slab and Thermal insulation · See more »
Thermal mass
In building design, thermal mass is a property of the mass of a building which enables it to store heat, providing "inertia" against temperature fluctuations.
New!!: Concrete slab and Thermal mass · See more »
Underfloor heating
Underfloor heating and cooling is a form of central heating and cooling which achieves indoor climate control for thermal comfort using conduction, radiation and convection.
New!!: Concrete slab and Underfloor heating · See more »
Voided biaxial slab
Voided biaxial slabs are reinforced concrete slabs in which voids reduce the amount of concrete.
New!!: Concrete slab and Voided biaxial slab · See more »
Waffle slab foundation
A waffle slab foundation, also called a ribbed slab foundation, is an above-ground type of foundation used to provide load-bearing capacity in expansive, rocky or hydro collapsible soils.
