Rib-stiffened funicular floor system

Catalogs:


Overview
This research develops the structure for an unreinforced concrete floor consisting of a thin funicular vault stiffened by a series of spandrel walls on its extrados. The structural floor is completed with tension ties, which link the supports and absorb the horizontal thrusts of the funicular shell.
