2. Voided biaxial slab - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voided_biaxial_slab

   The voids are positioned in the middle of the cross section, where concrete is least beneficial to the structure. The integrity of the solid layers is maintained, as the top and bottom of the slab can experience particularly high stresses. This enables the slab to effectively resist both positive and negative bending moments. [2]

3. Waffle slab - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waffle_slab

   Slab depth is typically 75 mm (3 in) to 130 mm (5 in) thick. [5] [3] As a rule of thumb, the depth should be 1 ⁄ 24 of the span. [5] The width of the ribs is typically 130 mm (5 in) to 150 mm (6 in), and ribs usually have steel rod reinforcements. [5] The distance between ribs is typically 915 mm (3 ft). [3]

4. Arching or compressive membrane action in reinforced concrete ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arching_or_Compressive...

   The derivation of the maximum arching moment of resistance of laterally restrained concrete bridge deck slabs utilised Rankin's [21] idealised elastic-plastic stress-strain criterion for concrete, valid for concrete cylinder strengths up to at least 70N/mm 2, which he had derived on the basis of Hognestad, Hanson and McHenry's [23] ultimate ...

5. Xbloc - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xbloc

   Large Xblocs (8.0 m 3 or 280 cu ft) on a trial placement area. An Xbloc is a wave-dissipating concrete block (or "armour unit") designed to protect shores, harbour walls, seawalls, breakwaters and other coastal structures from the direct impact of incoming waves.

6. T-beam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-beam

   Roof of hollow concrete blocks supported on a series of inverted T-beams under construction in Malta, 2009. A T-beam is a structural element able to withstand large loads by resistance in the beam or by internal reinforcements. In some respects, the T-beam dates back to the first time a human formed a bridge with a pier and a deck.
