Abstract

Mass migration of the urban population to the suburbs forces the producers of wooden panel houses, which are considered to be the most economical options for detached house, to constantly modify their products. Over the past 50 years, manufacturers have significantly improved the wooden panel walls. At the moment, work on improving the efficiency of such structures is in progress. However, according to the authors, the floor structure is given undeservedly little attention. In this paper, the process of testing and modifying of a standard floor slab panel, which has not changed in recent years, is described. The authors propose to increase the efficiency of the floor slab panel by adding a drop-beam, which allows not only reducing the prime cost but also to increasing the durability of the panel.

Summary

Introduction

Around the globe a lot of people are moving from cities to the suburbs. This decision is associated with more comfortable living conditions. Prefabricated wall structures are used in the USA, Canada, and Germany for the construction of 70% of dwellings, this quantity index in Russia has increased from 4 to 20% over the past 6 years [1]. This choice is an obvious solution for an overwhelming number of tenants. The maximum cost of one square meter of a frame wooden house does not exceed 18,000 rubles ($ 265), and on average it costs 15,000 rubles ($ 220), which is twice as effective. In addition to obvious advantages https://doi.org/10.10 51/matecconf /201823901017 in cost and speed, such structure does not require an expensive massive foundation, because the preassure transferred to the ground by a frame wooden house is about 2 times lower.
