Abstract

A building structure comprises two parallel plates (2, 3) attached to means (4) therebetween forming channels (5, 6). Some of these channels are filled with concrete so that concrete ribs (10, 11) are formed, which preferably are provided with reinforcement (12). This building structure will in many cases be provided with a cover (9) of concrete. In order to form a connection between the cover and the concrete ribs (10, 11), holes (13) are made in one of the plates (3) in order for a monolithic connection to be formed between the ribs and the concrete. A shear force reinforcement (15) may be placed into the ribs (10) though the holes (13). The plates (2, 3) with the channel forming means (4) constitute a prefabricated element (1) which is brought to the building site without holes (13) in said one plate. However, the plate is provided with hole markings (8), but the holes are only made at the building site when it has been determined which of the channels (5) are to be filled with concrete in the particular use at hand. Since the plate (3) in this manner is not provided with more holes than necessary, the plate (3) retains sufficient strength in order for the element (1) to have sufficient rigidity and strength to withstand traffic loads and the weight of the concrete before it has hardened.
