Assessment of Bubble Deck Slab

Bubble deck slab is a method of virtually eliminating all concrete from the middle of a floor slab, which is not performing any structural function, thereby dramatically reducing structural dead weight High density polyethylene hollow spheres replace the in- effective concrete in the centre of the slab, thus decreasing the dead weight and increasing the efficiency of the floor. By introducing the gaps leads to a 30 to 50% lighter slab which reduces the loads on the columns, walls and foundations, and of course of the entire building. The advantages are less energy consumption – both in production, transport and carrying out, less emission – exhaust gases from production and transport, especially Co2
