Reducing a structure’s self-weight is the main goal and major challenge for most civil constructions, especially in tall buildings earthquake-affected buildings. One of adopted techniques to reduce concrete structures applying voids certain positions through structure, just like voided slab or BubbleDeck slab. This research aims study, experimentally theoretically, structural behavior reinforce...

Analysis of proteins of the banana and citrus race of Radopholus similis was carried out by several different types of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. These included standard slab gel, SDS slab gel, gradient slab gel, and two-ditnensional slab gel electrophoresis. A major band difference was detected between the two races by slab gel electrophoresis. However, several other poorly resolved b...

A research study was undertaken to assess performance of flat plate systems constructed with slab shear reinforcement under dynamic loads. The research program consisted of shake table tests and accompanying analytical studies of two, approximately one-third scale, two-story, two-bay, slab-column frames. One specimen was constructed with reinforced concrete (RC) slab, whereas the other specimen...

This paper presents a newly developed method for determining the influence of tensile membrane action on ultimate loading capacity two-way RC concrete slab. In this method, more realistic and two failure criteria slab panel are established. The has been validated against test results good agreement is achieved. Compared to region obtained from FEM (Vulcan), assumptions about focus ellipse equat...

Experimental demonstrations of two edge-pumped zigzag slab lasers are presented. The Nd:YAG slab laser generated 127 W of multimode output power with 300W of pump power. Preliminary results with a Yb:YAG slab produced 46 W of output power with 315W of pump power. The edge-pumped slab design permits symmetric conduction cooling and efficient pump absorption and accepts large-numerical-aperture p...
