Filler Slab Roof

For example grid of 35cm x 50cm is used for magalore tile as filler material and grid of 45cm x 45cm is used for clay pots of 40cm diameter filler.

Filler slab roof.

Filler slab technology is a simple and a very innovative technology for a slab construction. The size of grid depends on structural design and size of filler material. Thus the filler slab as the roof has the following advantages. Strength of filler slabs tests by different institutions and laboratories has proved the load bearing capacity of filler slab and found it no less in performance from the conventional r c c.

With proper supervision and workmanship leaks can. The filler slab is based on the principle that for roofs which are simply supported the upper part of the slab is subjected to compressive forces and the lower part of the slab experience tensile forces. Filler slab is based on the concrete portions and instead of placing filler material there and is one cost effective roofing system. The filler material.

Filler slab roof construction. The filler material thus is not a structural part of the slab. Once the shuttering is done the reinforcements are laid in grid form. The consumption of steel is lesser than that of the solid slab.

Leak proofing filler slabs. Due to the use of low cost less heavy filler material such as clay pots rejected cali cut tiles and broken pieces of cement blocks the filler slab consumes less concrete and steel as compared to conventional rcc slab. Since filler roof tiles are firmly bonded to and covered by concrete.
