Roof slab system.

Heating has a whole systems approach to energy conservation. A precast prestressed concrete product used for floor and roof slab system. Natural ventilation is achieved during the day through manual window control and at night through automated control for night cooling and thermal mass activation. The slab may be supported by walls or by reinforced concrete beams usually cast monolithically with the slab or by structural steel beams or by columns or by the ground.

It is a concrete product with 5 500 psi. It is basically a concrete joist which supports a suspended flooring and form part as a slab system. Slabs are classified into 16 types. The uniqueness of this system is that the manufacturer and the applicator is the same.

In slab beam system the thickness of slab is small while depth of beam is large. Thermal comfort is addressed using an integrated system of thermal mass radiant slabs night purging and natural ventilation. This popular system which is frequently in residential buildings consists of supported by columns. The simplest of all oor and roof systems because the underside of the slab is at it is commonly used as the ceiling of the space below.

This results in signicant cost savings. Slabs are constructed to provide flat surfaces usually horizontal in building floors roofs bridges and other types of structures. In flat slab system the thickness of slab is large. In a slab beam system the floor roof consists of beam and slab.

Reinforced concrete roof decks. It provides greater clear ceiling heights.
