Abstract
Abstract: A novel and inventive structural system for concrete slabs, called plastic voided slabs, has been developed. This system incorporates plastic voids within the reinforced concrete slab, resulting in a lighter self-weight for the structure without compromising its load-bearing capacity compared to a solid slab. This study aims to compare the design process of plastic voided slabs with that of reinforced concrete solid flat slabs. Specifically, the design of typical bays with identical thickness is analyzed to assess the differences between the two systems.
