I have just discovered this site and am appreciative of the topics discussed here....
I am currently working as both structural and R&D engineer in our company and am looking into the design analysis or procedure of a Wideslab ( half slab in our local term) with welded wire mesh girders.
Wideslabs are precast concrete slabs poured half (or less ) of its designed thickness and then lifted on the structural frame then poured with the remaining thickness. The slab will serve as formwork and integral part of the structure.
I am particularly interested on the design and analysis of this system especially the one using welded wire girders.
There are companies offering this system as a whole but i would like to have a first hand knowledge on this. In our location, this is still a relatively new item.
Kindly give me some tips or point me to a site where i can read further on this matter.
Thanks!
