By using Armatec™ slats with punching shear-resistant dowels, it is now possible to construct a structure of thin slabs laid directly on columns. No more underlying beams, capitals, nor “cap” reinforcement elements that make concreting of junctions at the top of columns a complex task. Armatec™ dowels, whose ends are hot-forged in the form of nail heads, are welded to support laths, and must be distributed around the column within the thickness of the slab.
