What is meant by Floor slabs?
The term "floor slabs" refers to flat construction elements, usually made of concrete or reinforced concrete, that serve as foundations for buildings or as load-bearing layers for floor coverings. In the construction industry, floor slabs are an essential component of building foundations and play an important role in load distribution and protection against ground moisture.
Typical software functions in the area of "floor slabs":
- Load calculation: Determination of forces and loads acting on the floor slab.
- Dimensioning: Automatic calculation of required slab thickness and reinforcement.
- Foundation planning: Creation of detailed plans for the floor slab, including recesses and openings.
- Thermal bridge analysis: Investigation and optimization of thermal properties of the floor slab.
- Cost estimation: Calculation of material quantities and creation of cost estimates.
- 3D modeling: Visualization of the floor slab in the context of the entire building.
Examples of "floor slabs":
- Reinforced concrete floor slab for a single-family house.
- Floating floor slab for industrial halls on difficult building ground.
- Thermally insulated floor slab for energy-efficient buildings.
- Reinforced floor slab for the installation of heavy machinery.
- Waterproof floor slab for basement levels in areas with high groundwater levels.
- Frost-protected floor slab for buildings in cold climate zones.
