Definitions
- This application pertains to a prefabricated panel for one-way light-weight joist slabs of the compound section type, which combines: an upper contributing layer, a lower contributing layer, and shear bolts or connectors that connect the two components, thereby allowing the panel to operate as a compound section and thereby producing a high-efficiency system for meeting the demands of bending moments and shear forces. Because of the foregoing, these panels have a low per-unit weight compared to existing systems. The foregoing translates into smaller inherent-weight loads and mitigates inertial effects during seismic events, thereby making it possible to use less rugged structural solutions that impose lower demands on the soil and are much more economical. In addition, by eliminating the casting of concrete during the manufacture of the joist slabs, completely in the case of metal structures and significantly in the case of concrete structures, less time and fewer inputs are required: labor and equipment during this activity, thereby reducing cost.
- Construction systems for one-way light-weight slabs which account for the majority of those produced, include: Light-weight one-way slabs with blocks or caissons (1), as shown in Figure 1 , which depicts a general cross-section of a slab that is produced using this system.
- the lightening elements (11) can be: blocks of clay, concrete, or mortar, caissons made of expanded polystyrene (ICOPOR) or guadua [Translator's note: a type of South American bamboo], and in general elements that make up a system with a low specific weight and that can be incorporated into the slab or can be removed after the concrete cures.
- This system maintains a small separation between the joists (12) or length of the sheet (13), where the separation distance or width (A) of the lightening element along the sheet is between 300 and 800 mm.
- the per-unit weight of the sheet is 120.0 kg/m 2 .
- Managing the smallest separation between joists ensures that the slab: sheet + joists is the solution with the best weight per unit of surface area.
- This category of joist slab manages per-unit weights within the range of 300-600 kg/m 2 .
- the compound-section system formed by a contributing layer or steel deck + concrete (2) is shown in Figure 2 , which depicts a longitudinal section Figure 2A and a cross-section of the system Figure 2B .
- the contributing layer (21) performs two functions; first, as a form for receiving the concrete (22) while it cures, and second, once the concrete has cured, the ridges formed in the layer prevent the concrete from slipping and force it to work therewith in an integral fashion, thus creating a compound system.
- the maximum gap (B) or separation between joists (23) of this sheet is equal to or less than 2.5 m.
- the weight of the sheet per square meter varies depending on the height of the concrete and the thickness or size of the contributing sheet or steel deck that are combined. This kind of joist slab keeps per-unit weights between 187.0 kg/m 2 and 286.0 kg/m 2 .
- the system consists of "U"-section steel joists (31) which, during the casting of the slab, are filled with concrete, are separated by a gap of 800 mm, and support the "sheet” that is formed with clay blocks (32) having a length (A) of 800 mm and a per-unit weight of 60.0 kg/m 2 .
- the addition of a concrete coating (33) measuring 40 mm and electric-welded mesh to the "sheet” determines its per-unit weight, on the order of 96.0 kg/m 2 .
- this category of joist slab manages per-unit weights of between 206.0 and 268.0 kg/m 2 .
- FIG. 4 This system of prestressed prefabricated alveolar sheets (4) is depicted in Figure 4 .
- This figure shows a cross-section of one type of this sheet for commercial areas.
- the system consists of slender prestressed sheets (41) made of high-strength concrete and lightened with internal cavities (42) in the form of tubes.
- the gaps between these sheets are between 2000 mm and 9500 mm, and their inherent weight is between 135.0 and 215.0 kg/m 2 .
- the weight per square meter of this category of slab lies between 241.0 and 255.0 kg/m 2 .
- the systems currently in use require in-situ concrete casting, except for prestressed alveolar sheet system.
- the range of weights per square meter of the slab systems currently in use is between 206.0 and 600.0 kg/m 2 .
- the advantages of this system include: connecting in its entirety ordinary concrete to the light concrete via a steel frame, thereby reducing the weight of the floor.
- the integrity of the overall unit is increased, and the use of the lower profile makes it possible to protect the light concrete, thus enhancing the load-bearing capacity of the structure and thereby improving the durability of the lightened concrete.
- this system is not only very heavy, but it also requires a complex combination of profiles and frames that have to be installed on-site.
- prefabricated sheets are cited in the Colombian application 06 - 018544, which discloses prefabricated concrete sheets for creating flat surfaces for tracks and roads; said sheets comprise a body or volume with a quadrilateral outline and interior metal reinforcement along with some means for connecting to adjacent sheets of the same type.
- Said means for connecting to adjacent sheets of the same type consist of a metal plate with angular end folds and anchoring screws. These metal plates connect the adjacent sheets like a bridge, with being anchoring screws secured close to their respective shared edges.
- the system described above focuses on the way in which the prefabricated sheets can be connected. In no way does this system make it possible to reduce the weight of the sheet and retain a variable range of resistance to shearing and compression forces that makes it possible to withstand bending due to turning moments or tendencies to turn that can arise at any time.
- CN201424725 refers to a prefabricated concrete sheet with a metal section, which comprises a lower sheet of reinforced concrete, an upper sheet of concrete, and two longitudinal concrete bars that are supported between the upper and lower sheets by means of holes arranged on the sides of the longitudinal bars; a sheet on the ground is formed by cutting and joining multiple pieces of prefabricated reinforced-concrete sheets; a steel reinforcing bar extends through holes arranged in the sides of the longitudinal bars in order to connect to the different prefabricated pieces; later, concrete is cast in order to fill and level the hollow cavities formed between the longitudinal bars, thereby reducing the dead weight of the floor sheet and extending its service life.

Abstract
Description
- This application pertains to a prefabricated panel for one-way light-weight joist slabs of the compound section type, which combines: an upper contributing layer, a lower contributing layer, and shear bolts or connectors that connect the two components, thereby allowing the panel to operate as a compound section and thereby producing a high-efficiency system for meeting the demands of bending moments and shear forces. Because of the foregoing, these panels have a low per-unit weight compared to existing systems. The foregoing translates into smaller inherent-weight loads and mitigates inertial effects during seismic events, thereby making it possible to use less rugged structural solutions that impose lower demands on the soil and are much more economical. In addition, by eliminating the casting of concrete during the manufacture of the joist slabs, completely in the case of metal structures and significantly in the case of concrete structures, less time and fewer inputs are required: labor and equipment during this activity, thereby reducing cost.
- Construction systems for one-way light-weight slabs, which account for the majority of those produced, include:
Light-weight one-way slabs with blocks or caissons (1), as shown inFigure 1 , which depicts a general cross-section of a slab that is produced using this system. The lightening elements (11) can be: blocks of clay, concrete, or mortar, caissons made of expanded polystyrene (ICOPOR) or guadua [Translator's note: a type of South American bamboo], and in general elements that make up a system with a low specific weight and that can be incorporated into the slab or can be removed after the concrete cures. This system maintains a small separation between the joists (12) or length of the sheet (13), where the separation distance or width (A) of the lightening element along the sheet is between 300 and 800 mm. For a width of the sheet (13) of 50 mm, the per-unit weight of the sheet is 120.0 kg/m2. Managing the smallest separation between joists ensures that the slab: sheet + joists is the solution with the best weight per unit of surface area. This category of joist slab manages per-unit weights within the range of 300-600 kg/m2. - The compound-section system formed by a contributing layer or steel deck + concrete (2) is shown in
Figure 2 , which depicts a longitudinal sectionFigure 2A and a cross-section of the systemFigure 2B . The contributing layer (21) performs two functions; first, as a form for receiving the concrete (22) while it cures, and second, once the concrete has cured, the ridges formed in the layer prevent the concrete from slipping and force it to work therewith in an integral fashion, thus creating a compound system. The maximum gap (B) or separation between joists (23) of this sheet is equal to or less than 2.5 m. The weight of the sheet per square meter varies depending on the height of the concrete and the thickness or size of the contributing sheet or steel deck that are combined. This kind of joist slab keeps per-unit weights between 187.0 kg/m2 and 286.0 kg/m2. - On the national market there is the system: easy sheet (3), a cross-section of which is depicted in
Figure 3 . The system consists of "U"-section steel joists (31) which, during the casting of the slab, are filled with concrete, are separated by a gap of 800 mm, and support the "sheet" that is formed with clay blocks (32) having a length (A) of 800 mm and a per-unit weight of 60.0 kg/m2. The addition of a concrete coating (33) measuring 40 mm and electric-welded mesh to the "sheet" determines its per-unit weight, on the order of 96.0 kg/m2. Assuming that the separation between the "U"-shaped joists (31) is 800 mm, this category of joist slab manages per-unit weights of between 206.0 and 268.0 kg/m2. - This system of prestressed prefabricated alveolar sheets (4) is depicted in
Figure 4 . This figure shows a cross-section of one type of this sheet for commercial areas. The system consists of slender prestressed sheets (41) made of high-strength concrete and lightened with internal cavities (42) in the form of tubes. The gaps between these sheets are between 2000 mm and 9500 mm, and their inherent weight is between 135.0 and 215.0 kg/m2. For a concrete slab and assuming support-beam cross-sections of 200×500 mm, the weight per square meter of this category of slab lies between 241.0 and 255.0 kg/m2. - In general, the systems currently in use require in-situ concrete casting, except for prestressed alveolar sheet system. The range of weights per square meter of the slab systems currently in use is between 206.0 and 600.0 kg/m2.
- Included herein are patent applications and applications for utility models that make reference to prefabricated floors. This is the case with application
CN204781519 (U ), which describes a light-concrete sheet with a piece that is prefabricated on-site, in which the lower piece includes a pre-buried truss (frame) and a part made of light concrete. In this application the elements that make up the assembly are molded on-site, including a cap made of regular concrete, with a shape that is adaptable to a floor. This floor comprises a steel bar that makes up the frame uses [sic, should probably be in "used"] in layered profiles; the latter retains a triangular shape. Said profiles are located on the lower part of the prefabricated light-concrete piece. The advantages of this system include: connecting in its entirety ordinary concrete to the light concrete via a steel frame, thereby reducing the weight of the floor. The integrity of the overall unit is increased, and the use of the lower profile makes it possible to protect the light concrete, thus enhancing the load-bearing capacity of the structure and thereby improving the durability of the lightened concrete. However, this system is not only very heavy, but it also requires a complex combination of profiles and frames that have to be installed on-site. - Other prefabricated sheets are cited in the Colombian application 06 - 018544, which discloses prefabricated concrete sheets for creating flat surfaces for tracks and roads; said sheets comprise a body or volume with a quadrilateral outline and interior metal reinforcement along with some means for connecting to adjacent sheets of the same type. Said means for connecting to adjacent sheets of the same type consist of a metal plate with angular end folds and anchoring screws. These metal plates connect the adjacent sheets like a bridge, with being anchoring screws secured close to their respective shared edges. The system described above focuses on the way in which the prefabricated sheets can be connected. In no way does this system make it possible to reduce the weight of the sheet and retain a variable range of resistance to shearing and compression forces that makes it possible to withstand bending due to turning moments or tendencies to turn that can arise at any time.
- The state of the art has also been found to include application CO02-043805, which cites a sheet or slab of concrete with metal reinforcements in its sides and inside of its flat bases with beveled sides and an inside area filled with materials other than concrete, which act as elevations (peaks) of weight and which impart anti-acoustic, anti-thermal, and flame-retardant properties for the multiple uses to which this element is put. Even though this sheet reduces the weight of the system, it is unable to achieve the levels of weight reduction achieved with this patent application, nor does it contribute to shearing and compression forces [sic, one or more words may be omitted].
- The state of the art also cites
CN201424725 , which refers to a prefabricated concrete sheet with a metal section, which comprises a lower sheet of reinforced concrete, an upper sheet of concrete, and two longitudinal concrete bars that are supported between the upper and lower sheets by means of holes arranged on the sides of the longitudinal bars; a sheet on the ground is formed by cutting and joining multiple pieces of prefabricated reinforced-concrete sheets; a steel reinforcing bar extends through holes arranged in the sides of the longitudinal bars in order to connect to the different prefabricated pieces; later, concrete is cast in order to fill and level the hollow cavities formed between the longitudinal bars, thereby reducing the dead weight of the floor sheet and extending its service life. - It has likewise been found that application
FR19980000526 - Considering the foregoing, it is clear that it is necessary to develop a system that offers the features that the above-cited systems currently provide but that is lighter in weight, meaning lower transportation costs, less stringent requirements as regards the effect of inertial loads during seismic events, is less rugged, puts less stress on the ground, and ultimately provides more economical cementing solutions.
- Likewise, an effort is made to ensure that the system is prefabricated in order to eliminate the need to cast concrete and use bracing devices, thereby reducing cost, labor, and installation time.

- The compound-sheet panel (5) of this invention was designed as a prefabricated panel for the field of sheets made of one-way light-weight slabs. As
Figure 5 shows, said panel is composed of an upper layer (51) of the cement type and/or polymer resins, cured, with thicknesses of between 15 and 20 mm, a compressive strength of between 27 Mp and 28 Mp, and a specific weight of between 1550.0 and 1600.0 kg/m3; hereinafter this layer will be referred to as the upper contributing layer (51), and a lower contributing layer (52) made of cool-roll (CR) steel, which is among the references described in section A.3.1 of standard AISI 1996 and which has a thickness of 0.6-1.2 mm, or which is made of cold-rolled stainless steel having a thickness of between 0.5 and 0.8 mm. - The cross-section of said panel is depicted in
Figure 6 , which shows that the lower contributing layer (52) features a series of upper peaks (521) and valleys (522). The upper contributing layer (51) is secured by shear bolts or pins (53) working in shear and compression on the upper peaks (521) of the lower contributing layer (52), while the valleys (522) are connected by means of shear bolts or pins (53) to the slab (7) lattice beam, which can be made of steel or concrete. In this system, the shear bolts or pins (53) take up the shear stresses that are generated by the integrated operation of the system under shearing conditions. - The selection of the lower contributing layer (52) is subject to the AISI standard, and its dimensions will vary depending on the requirements as regards loads and separation between supports.
Figure 7 depicts the lower contributing layer (52) in detail and independently. As can be seen, said layer includes the peaks (521), which have a width (h) that varies between 100 and 150 mm, a width (a) of 185-250 mm, a peak-to-peak distance (b) of between 190 and 260 mm, and which have at each of the ends of the lower contributing layer (52) a horizontal flange (54) whose length is 20 mm. - By contrast, the selection of the upper contributing layer (51) will be determined by resistance to compression and shearing stresses according to the LRFD [Load and Resistance Factor Design] design method, standard ACI. Both contributing components (51, 52) must comply with verification of [Translator's note: this should perhaps be "guarantee resistance to"] the compression stresses generated by the shear bolts or pins (53).
- Under the action of loads distributed over the upper contributing layer (51), the internal stresses of the sheet panel (5) exhibit the behavior of a sheet with a length/width ratio of >3, where said stresses resemble the behavior of a wide beam; this makes it possible to assume that there exists a distribution of similar internal stresses: as shown in
Figure 8 , the forces of strain (T) are taken up by the lower contributing layer (52), and the majority of the compression (C) stresses are taken up by the upper contributing layer (51). This figure also shows the neutral axis (6), which is located between the compression (C) stresses and the strain (T) forces. - The sheet panel of this invention is conceived of as prefabricated and operating under conditions of simple support, on the system of beams of the slab (7), where the panel is secured to the beams by means of attachments or shear connectors consisting of fired bolts and/or nails, joining the lower contributing layer (52) to the upper face of the support beam (7), which is made of concrete or steel. The inherent weight of the panel varies between 40.0 and 48.0 kg/m2. For a concrete slab, assuming support-beam cross-sections of 150×400 mm, the weight per square meter of this slab system is between 108.0 and 116.0 kg/m2.
- Example 1. Arrangement of the sheet panels (5) on the lattice of beams (7) of the slab.
- The arrangement of the panels (5) of this invention on the lattice of beams (7) is depicted in
Figure 9 for the purpose of forming a system that makes up the slab. Once the sheet panel (5) has been selected based on the requirements of gaps and loads, it is put in place simply resting on the beams (7) of the slab lattice, midline to midline of the beams, working on a single gap. Said beams (71, 72, 7A, 7B) are crossed, forming a grid. - The integrated working of the set of panels (5) as a system of flat beams is achieved by virtue of the fact that the shear bolts or pins (53) depicted in
Figure 10 work on shear: "Section A-AFigure 9 ". The shear bolts or pins (531) guarantee the transfer of shear forces in order to ensure integral operation between the upper contributing layer (51) and the lower contributing layer (52), while the shear bolts or pins (532) are responsible for transferring shear forces in order to guarantee integral operation between sheet panels (5), thereby avoiding cracks between joints. These shear bolts or pins (532) keep different levels of deflection from arising along the longitudinal lines that delimit the panels (5), thereby preventing the floor finishes from cracking along said lines. - As regards the treatment of the intermediate beams (7A, 7B), which are parallel to the plate panels, said beams are shown in
Figure 11 , which depicts a section B-B ofFigure 9 . The leveling treatment of the central beam (7A) is carried out with a concrete f'c = 10 Mp to accommodate the floor finish. The sheet panels (5) that confine the filler would act as skirts. Later and once the filler (R) has hardened, the skids of the lower contributing layer (52) that push against it are secured with appropriately selected shear bolts or pins (53) (bolts of Type A490 for metal beams or epoxy fasteners or fired nails for concrete beams).Figure 11 also shows the column (8) that rises above the sheet panel (5) at the point where the central beam (7A) and the support beam (71) come together. - The way in which the plate panel of this patent application (5) and the support beams (71, 72) interact is presented in
Figure 12 . In this figure a cut (S) is shown that is made in the upper contributing layer (51) along the edge that strikes against the central axis of the support beam (7) for the purpose of securing the central valley (522) of the lower contributing layer (52) to the support beam (71, 72) by means of shear bolts or pins (533) that are appropriately selected (bolts of Type A490 for metal structures, or epoxy fastenings for concrete structures) as shown inFigures 12 and 13 . Once the attachment is made, the opening that has been made (S) is again closed with epoxy resin, thereby securing the cut segment. - The split center joints along the support beams (71, 72) are sealed with a joint filler (9) with a high modulus of elasticity, such as Sikabond T2 or the like (see
Figure 14 ). - To produce fire-resistant panels (5), a fire-resistant coating is applied to the lower face of the lower contributing layer; this coating guarantees that the coating will remain stable for at least 120 minutes after a fire starts.
- The plate panel (5) of this invention is made up of three components:
- Upper contributing layer (51): cement-type and/or polymer resin sheet with thicknesses of between 15 and 20 mm, autoclave-cured, with a compressive strength of greater than 27 Mp and a specific weight of between 1200.0 and 1600.0 kg/m3. It is selected in accordance with standard ACI 318 - 11 by the LRFD [load and resistance factor design] method.
- Lower contributing layer (52): made of CR steel with a trapezoidal cross-section within the references described in section A.3.1 of standard AISI 1996 and having thicknesses of between 0.6 and 1.2 mm, or cold-rolled stainless steel with thicknesses of 0.5-0.8 mm. The selection thereof is made in accordance with standard AISI 3. It is recommended that the Finite Elements Method be used for the analysis of the flat components of the system, the upper contributing layer (51), and the lower contributing layer (52).
- Shear transfer bolts (53). Among these components there exist the following categories, which are illustrated in
Figures 10 and 11 ; they are:- o Shear bolts or pins (531) work on transferring shear forces between the upper contributing layers (51) and the lower contributing layer (52).
- o Shear bolts or pins (532) work on transferring shear forces between lower contributing layers (52).
- These bolts are of the following type: matchtip Phillips milled-head screw with a diameter of at least 5.5 mm; selection thereof is made in accordance with standard ASIC-LRFD.
- Considering the panel (5) defined above, the applicant has analyzed its behavior and has determined that said panel and the system that includes it offer the following advantages:
- Lower weight per square meter of the system:
Inherent weight 40.0-48.0 kg/m . For a concrete slab and assuming support beam (71, 72) cross-sections of 150 × 400 mm, the weight per square meter of this slab system is within the range: 108.0-116.0 kg/m2. - Compared to the existing lighter composite cross-section system, contributing layer + concrete, which has a slab weight range of 187.0-286.0 kg/m2 [sic, incomplete sentence].
- These data make it clear that the system based on the panel (5) of this application provides a reduction in weight of between 42.2% and 59.4% dead load per slab. This significant reduction in the inherent weight of the slabs means: lower demands on the structure due to gravitational loads and consequently lower cost for the structure, lower requirements due to the effects of inertial loads during seismic events, and consequently less rugged structural solutions and, finally, lower costs as well as less load on the ground and therefore lower-cost cementing solutions.
- Since this is a prefabricated system, the activity of concrete casting is eliminated, thereby transforming the operation into the installation of a low-weight system, which translates into fewer resources required for the execution of the item or lower costs and shorter execution times.
- Likewise, the sheet panel enhances the moment of inertia of the section by putting the center of gravity closer to that of the upper contributing layer.
- Immediate load-bearing capacity. As a result, the requirement for shoring equipment is eliminated, meaning lower costs for this design.
- Since this is a prefabricated system, it is available immediately, making it possible to initiate finishing activities sooner.
