<strong>Structural</strong> <strong>Floor</strong> <strong>Panels</strong><br />
SCOPE<br />
This design and installation guide for <strong>Supercrete</strong> <strong>Structural</strong> <strong>Floor</strong> <strong>Panels</strong> is intended for use by designers, architects, engineers,<br />
building consents authorities, building owners and panel installers.<br />
It details the features and benefits of the panels, where they can be used, how they are incorporated into structures and how<br />
to design diaphragm floors and roofs with these panels.<br />
Common details are included and these can also be downloaded in CAD, .dwg, .dxf or .pdf format from the website<br />
www.supercrete.co.nz for inclusion in construction documentation and specifications.<br />
<strong>Supercrete</strong> <strong>Structural</strong> <strong>Floor</strong>s and Roofs compliment many <strong>Supercrete</strong> Block walled buildings, providing compatible<br />
movement, shrinkage and seismic behaviour characteristics. The same great thermal, acoustic and fire insulation properties of<br />
<strong>Supercrete</strong> can be applied to walls, roofs and floors.<br />
<strong>Supercrete</strong> <strong>Structural</strong> <strong>Floor</strong>s and Roofs are only a quarter of the mass of dense concrete, so they are also used in steel or<br />
concrete framed buildings, where building mass is a consideration.<br />
Lightweight <strong>Supercrete</strong> <strong>Floor</strong>s and Roofs reduce the size of support members, resulting in<br />
savings throughout the structure, compared to dense concrete systems.<br />
