The buildings themselves are prefabricated and brought to site in two halves, framed in steel clad with fibrecement boarding, roofed in zincalume sheeting, and timber floored with applied fibre-cement sheeting. Although designed using passive solar design principles and other energy conservation measures...
One type of siding material consists of thin cementious strips in the shape of lumber siding with a wood-grained surface. This durable wood fibre reinforced concrete siding material is fixed in the conventional manner with nails and caulked joints. This durable material does not offer any substant...
A composite slab comprised of self-compacting rubber lightweight aggregate concrete (SCRLC) and profiled steel sheeting is a new type of structural element with a series of superior properties. This paper presents an experimental research and finite element analysis (FEA) of the flexural behavior ...
