At the construction site of the Jinan Start-up Area Comprehensive Medical Center project, reinforced steel truss floor slabs are being widely used as the core floor system, perfectly matching the functional and construction requirements of medical buildings.

1. Technical Adaptability

Prioritizing Construction Efficiency:

Medical buildings have complex functions and tight schedules. Reinforced steel truss floor slabs, prefabricated in the factory and directly laid on-site, eliminate the time required for traditional wooden formwork and extensive on-site rebar tying, increasing the main structure construction efficiency by approximately 50% and allowing more time for subsequent electromechanical installation and specialized medical engineering projects.

Structural Safety and Reliability:

The truss reinforcement and concrete work together to bear the load, resulting in floor slabs with significantly better crack resistance and load-bearing capacity than ordinary floor slabs. This meets the concentrated load requirements of medical equipment (such as large imaging equipment) and also accommodates the structural design requirements of large-span outpatient and medical technology spaces.

Convenient Piping Installation: 

The flat bottom of the floor slab facilitates the layout and installation of dense electromechanical pipelines (oxygen supply, low-voltage electricity, fire protection, etc.) in medical buildings, reducing wasted ceiling height and improving space utilization.

2. On-site Construction Characteristics

As seen in the images: The floor decking has been laid, with the texture of the truss reinforcement exposed in some areas. Workers are currently carrying out subsequent reinforcement connection and acceptance preparation work.

Multiple tower cranes are operating collaboratively, demonstrating the project's efficient "three-dimensional, cross-sectional, and continuous construction" organizational model, which complements the rapid installation characteristics of the steel truss floor decking.

The circular building on the right (suspected to be a nuclear medicine or surgical center) is also under construction simultaneously. These special functional areas have higher requirements for the flatness and structural stability of the floor slabs, where the advantages of the steel truss floor decking are more pronounced.

3. Project Value

As a regional medical core, the Jinan Start-up Area Comprehensive Medical Center's application of steel truss floor decking not only ensures high-quality and high-efficiency construction goals but also practices green construction concepts by reducing the use of timber formwork and construction waste, providing a model for the industrialized construction of subsequent medical buildings.
