'Hidden beams' in this context are small beams usually having the same depth as the solid slab. The term hidden [/b]is used because the beam is [b]concealed in the reinforced concrete solid slab. The beam you described is the downstand beam placed on the sandcrete blocks. This is usually 450mm deep or more unlike the hidden 150mm beam. Its deeper than the slab hence not hidden . diordaves: 1 Like |

clems88: Two main areas that need further attention : I am guessing that your guests will, occasionally, need to clean up, but you don't seem to have provision for a bathroom. The second point is in the width of your main entrance gate. You will need to widen it substantially for it to be able to accommodate a car in front of the property. |

Of course flat ( just like ribbed, waffle or solid ) slabs are structurally designed element. They however do not have any beam at all stiffening the panels. They are designed to be supported by the columns and their column heads are enlarged and designed in such a way that there is no shearing between them because of the absence of beams. uwemjack: |

cbmfi: That’s something that you’ll have to decide. You’ll have to compare the cost of laterite to fill the hole as well as proper compaction. Good luck on your project. |

Aforxzy:nice, could it be that it saves cost, that's why people are doing it, but so far so Good, deflection rarely happens where hidden beam was used, 1 Like |

[quote author=BrickDevo post=107941508][/quote] Disadvantage will probably be the extra cost of rebars. What she's saying is that.. Do not think your secret beams are doing the work that beams (with depth) are designed to do. They don't prevent slab deflection. And its better to reduce the rebar spacing for a slab than introduce "secret beams" 2 Likes |

clems88: Morning sir. The guest bedroom toilet doesn't not have WC.tell your architect to put it there. Nice concept by the way,you're good to go. Can we see your site plan.lets see if there's provision for services. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Aforxzy(f): 8:23am On Nov 25, 2021 |
Beams should not be concealed in a flat slab. Flat slabs are beamless. It's wrong if done. Ribbed slab yes in the ribs with considerable depth e.g the hollow pot type. I'm a structural engineer. uwemjack: 3 Likes |
