structured slab on grade
structured slab on grade
(OP)
I have a project with undocumented fill and the geotechnical engineer has recommended a structured slab on grade?
Would the cost be the same as an elevated framed system ($30/sf) or more like a slab on grade ($7 /sf)?
I think the only cost savings would be the formwork which could be considerable. Maybe $20/sf for this structured slab on grade between grade beams?

RE: structured slab on grade
I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.

There will also likely be beams and foundations below a structured slab on grade as opposed to just a standard slab on grade.
