KING FAHD UNIVERSITYCIVIL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENTA New Prefab Panel As a flooring slabWeb Grid Core PanelABDUL FATTAH DARWISH
Subjects • The Problem ? • Panel Description • Structural Study • Economical Study • Comparison • conclusion
Problems ? • High Dead Loads in buildings ? • D/L ≥ 2 In ordinary buildings • D/L = 1 In Hollow Core Slab ? • Construction Cost & Time • Slab Cost @70% of Skelton • Slab Time @ 75% of Skelton Time • Earthquake Disasters • Mass & Height • Environmental Impacts of Concrete • Roads & Crushing Plants Problems • Energy Loss • Crushing Plants,Transportation & Construction
Panel Description Components • Web Grid Core • Cladding Plats • Filling Material • Connecting Devices
Panel Description Strength Points • Very Light : 10% of concrete Weight • Very strong : 50 cm for 20x20 m • Could be one or two way slab action • Reduce @ 50% of Building Weight • Reduce @20% of skeleton cost • Reduce construction time • Reusable,Removable and adjustable • Easy to transport & install
Panel Description Improving points • Water Proofing • Fire & Heat Resistance • Electric Conductivity • Sound Resistance • Connecting Devices
Structural Study Data • Dimensions are: 6 x 6 x 0.20 meter • Pinned supports all around • All elements are 1.5 mm thick. • Total load is 300 kg/m2 Results • Max. stress is 0.15 t/cm2 • Max Deflection 1.0 mm
Deflection is 1mm Central Rib Stress 0.13 t/cm2
Economical study Data: • 10 floors building • Floor area 12X12 m • Current prices for ribbed slab Result: • 20 % Reduction in skeleton cost if we use the new panel
Comparison against: • Solid Slab • Ribbed Slab • Hollow Core Slab • Siporex
Achievements • Load Reduction (> 50%) • Cost Reduction (>20%) • Saving Victims in earthquakes • Environmental Benefits • Energy Savings
Conclusion • It has strength points • It has improving points • A Feasibility study should be done to ensure : • Performance • Manufacturing • Use & Cost
