Abstract: |
This article reviews the performance characteristics of and some recent developments in slim-floor and integrated beam construction. This form of construction provides a flat floor using precast concrete slabs or deep composite decking and offers advantages over other forms of construction in many sectors. Composite slim-floor beams have superior stiffness and can achieve longer spans. |
