Design of Architectural Concrete Floors

There are so many parts to design a concrete floor that meets expectations.

Is it really possible to produce architectural concrete floors without joints, curl and unsightly cracks? What are the fundamental of such a design?

This course isolates the value of such design, the best practice and how to manage the expectations through specification. It isolates new technology and the importance of sustainable elements such as longest life-cycle, reflective floors and low-maintenance.

Credits: 1 AIA HSW + 1 AIBD Elective + 1 AIBC Core LU + 1 AAA Structured LU + 1 OAA, OAQ, SAA, MAA, AAPEI, NWTAA

Length: 1h
