    Thermal Properties of Hollowcore Slabs

    Uploaded by

    renishkavukatt
    The document discusses the thermal properties of different types of concrete, including: 1. It provides a table listing the thermal resistance and specific heat of various concrete densities ranging from 140 to 30 lbs/ft3. 2. The table also lists the thermal resistance and specific heat of normal weight tees/slabs and hollow core slabs of varying thicknesses from 2 to 12 inches. 3. Similarly, it provides data on structural lightweight tees/slabs and hollow core slabs of different thicknesses. 4. Footnotes provide additional details on how the thermal properties were determined and defined.

    a. Based on normally dry concrete (see Chapter 4 of Reference 5).


    b. The specific heats shown are from Table 4.1 of ACI 122R-02.6
    c. Includes normalweight, lightweight, and lightweight insulation concretes.
    d. Thickness for tees is thickness of slab portion including topping, if used. The effect of the stems generally is not sig-
    nificant; therefore, their thickness and surface area may be disregarded.
    e. The thickness of hollow-core is the total thickness.
