| Summary: | The aim of this dissertation is to identify the selection of economical structural
slab systems for various purposes. The relative cost of commonly used structural
slab systems such as Precast hollow core slab, Post-tensioned flat slab, RC flat
slab, RC waffle slab and conventional RC beams and slabs were selected for this
study. Variations in quantities of materials with changes in sizes of column spans
and superimposed loads were worked out using commercial and self-developed
softwares in compliance with Building by-laws and based on similar design
assumptions. |
