Proposed structural system for mixed hollow flat slab
The economic design of the slabs is the most influential on the construction cost and choosing the appropriate system is the key to the slabs optimal design, and there are many systems that have been developed recently to reach the most economical design. In this research, we try to mix two systems, each of them has its optimal use, and each of them has its advantages and limits for uses, and they have been mixed to try to find a dual system with more advantages. This paper presents a slab system consisting of flat slab system that its field strip areas were replaced with two-way hollow block systems. Consequently, the total weight of the resulting slab was reduced, which positively affected the quantities of steel reinforcement used directly, in addition to its reflection on the design of columns and foundations due to the low self-weight of the slabs. The validity of the proposed concept has been verified through a finite element analysis using Program SAP2000 that was applied to several cases with different configurations under static and dynamic loadings.
