Hi sireesha the filler slabs will have similar load bearing capacity as only the concrete which is in the tension part of the slab is replaced by the filler material.
Construction filler slab roof.
This technical brief describe the technology of filler slab.
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.
Filler slab with terra cotta pots as fillers.
Slabs are constructed to provide flat surfaces usually horizontal in building floors roofs bridges and other types of structures.
Filler slab roof construction where inverted hemispheres of terra cotta pots are pre cast and made to rest over reinforced concrete beams before the concreting process.
By reducing the quantity and weight of material the roof become less expensive yet retains the strength of the conventional slab.
Here indigenous building materials are incorporated techniques that absorb and relate to other forms of design and materials.
Slab for floor and roof.
2 construction technique the floor roof consists of a cast insitu rc filler slab with non autoclaved cellular concrete filler blocks as shown in fig.
Exact specifications vary but most concrete roofs are several inches thick.
A concrete roof is exactly what it sounds like.
The filler slab is based on the principle that for roofs which are simply supported the upper part of the slab is subjected to compressive forces and the lower part of the slab experience tensile forces.
For example grid of 35cm x 50cm is used for magalore tile as filler material and grid of 45cm x 45cm is used for clay pots of 40cm diameter filler.
A solid slab of concrete capping the top of your house.
The most popular filler material is the roofing tile.
The slab is cast with cement concrete of.
The filler slab is a mechanism to replace the concrete in the tension zone.
Concrete is very good in withstanding compressive forces and steel bears the load due to tensile forces.
Filler slab roof construction.
Filler slab technology is a simple and a very innovative technology for a slab construction.
The size of grid depends on structural design and size of filler material.
The filler slab is based on the principle that for roofs which are simply supported the upper part of the slab is subjected to compressive forces and the lower part of the slab experience tensile forces.
A filler slab roof using clay pans.
This concrete doesnt add to the strength of the slab as all the tension is taken up by the reinforcement rods.
For example the florida based company hurricane proof systems offers a 7 inch 18 centimeter slab of concrete in three layers.
Once the shuttering is done the reinforcements are laid in grid form.
1 the filler blocks are 110 mm thick and 260 x 560 mm at top tapering down to 250 x 550 mm at bottom.
