Proposal and deflection analysis of lightened slabs with embedded three-dimensional metal arrangement
Abstract
In this work the deflection analysis of two types of lightened slabs of 50 mm with embedded three-dimensional metallic structure is presented. Two structure configurations (pyramidal and cubic) of 4 mm diameter grade 6000 steel rods are proposed. In the first stage, the deflection in conventional slabs is evaluated using an analytical method and, subsequently, the deflection in this type of slab is determined using the finite elements method using the ANSYS software. After the validation of the simulations with the software, the same simulations were performed for the slabs with three-dimensional structures. The results obtained show that three-dimensional structures provide more strength before deflection compared to conventional steel reinforcement. Furthermore, it was found that the cubic structure is the most resistant to bending. The possible application of slabs with three-dimensional reinforcement for optimization of materials by reducing the superelevation in housing is discussed.
