Inside both buildings and outside, the temperature of the ground at the depth of 1.5 m below slab-on-grade level was measured in three locations A (in the center of the building), B (0.5 m from the external wall to the inside of the building), and C (0.5 m from external wall to...

Development of a Design Procedure for Radiant Heating in Slab-on-Grade Floors in a Cold Climate. A two-dimensional steady-state numerical model was developed for in-floor-heated slab-on-grade foundations. The model allows for various placements of insu......
Neil Williamson, in Advanced Concrete Technology, 2003 24.1 Introduction 24.1.1 Floor slab function Simply, a floor slab functions to distribute without deformation or cracking, the loads applied to it to the weaker sub-grade below, in the case of a ground bearing slab, or to the piles suppor...
(~70 km) and >530 °C on Venus (green-shaded in Fig.2aand Supplementary Figs.1–3). Venus’ crust density sharply increases when eclogite forms. We use the density at 400 °C to represent that of low-grade rocks. At sub-eclogite conditions (<70 km), crustal densities are ...
in vapor form. Air and vapor barriers both stop the movement of vapor. However, only an air barrier prevents airflow. Above- and below-grade walls both require an air barrier. Using a vapor barrier on the interior side of framed walls may or may not be needed, depending on the climate...

Development of a design procedure for radiant heating in slab-on-grade floors in a cold climateA two-dimensional steady-state numerical model was developed for in-floor-heated slab-on-grade foundations. The model allows for various placements of insulation, including bottom, edge (both outside ...
Composite slab systems have become increasingly popular over the last few decades because of the advantages of merging the two building materials, profiled steel sheets and concrete. The profiled composite slab’s performance depends on the composite interaction at the longitudinal direction of the con...
