One of the significant methods, which reduce environmental damage, is by using the sustainable elements into construction activities. Bubbled deck is a slab system in which the ineffective concrete in the centre of the section is replaced by HDPE hollow spheres which are produced from waste plastic materials. It offers sustainable structural system due to decreasing (35%) of the self- weight and, therefore, the use and transport of less construction materials. In this study an investigation was carried out on (33) bubbled deck slabs of different dimensions and different sphere diameters, where part of specimens was with openings. The main objective of the study is to determine the impact parameters on increasing the sustainability effect through the input raw materials, energy consumption, and CO2 emissions for the bubbled deck slabs in comparison to solid slabs. Results of the study showed that the reduction of raw materials for bubbled deck slabs led to reduce the energy consumption and CO2 emission by (12%-40%). |
