Here
is a great website that is all about concrete and nothing but concrete.
You

From: BLDG-SIM@xxxxxxxx [mailto:BLDG-SIM@xxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Ian Doebber Sent: Friday, January 19, 2007 2:03 PM To: BLDG-SIM@xxxxxxxx Subject: [BLDG-SIM] increasing concrete slab conductivity Anyone know of a common and cheap
procedure to add a material to a concrete pour to drive up its conductivity from
a common 1.6 to 1.7 W/m-K. We don’t want to add rebar nor a wire
mess. I’m thinking of pulverized metal material that would not corrode
within the conrete reducing the strength, causing cracks/discoloration.
I’d be appreciative if anyone knew of any research or currently applied
practices. With radiant tubing buried a further
depth below the finished surface, want to increase the dynamic response of the
slab.
