Abstract

A wood-concrete composite slab having a planar wood element, by means of which spans with little dependence upon the relative inherent weight of the slab are achieved. The slab layer construction includes a wood layer, an insulating layer, and a concrete layer. In one embodiment, the layer construction is interrupted by at least one bearing means, in that this bearing means traverses at least the concrete layer and the insulating layer and extends downward at least as far as the wood layer. In a different embodiment, for a high level of soundproofing, the slab comprises in its insulating layer two different-density insulating materials, wherein the denser insulating material rests directly on the wood layer, acting as a vibration damping means. In a further embodiment, the wooden panels of the wood-concrete composite slab that form the planar wood element are tensioned against one another in order to convey tensile forces therethrough.
