Section size, for a given span and loading, a steel section will take up less space. It may be a steel beam like the one above, that because of it's less depth than a timber beam doing the same job, will give greater head height. Also compared to timber it takes up less space in...
For the structural design, concrete strength-fc′ of 3000 psi (20.7 MPa) and steel re-bar strength-fy of 60,000 psi (414 MPa) were used. The results are summarized in Table 1. Table 1. Summary of the code compliance check for the design of residential units. MemberDesign computations ...

In a concrete beam the steel is added to the part of the beam which is subject to tension. This is also the reason steel is added to concrete foundations. 29 Wood and steel, if compared pound for pound are similar in strength. Steel is more dense, requiring a smaller amount of ...
The criteria on green public procurement of the European Union establish that the economic budgets of building projects must be complemented by their derived environmental and social costs. These criteria are currently being adapted to the requirements r
The CO2 emissions from electricity usage on site were 830 and 820 kg CO2 for the ordinary reinforced concrete slab and the voided slab system, respectively (see Table 5). In the case of the voided slab system, void formers and steel decking, which replace the rebars and steel materials, ...
