This paper makes a comparative study between a "solid" and a "waffle" slab system. A typical 14-story RC building structure is selected as an example for this study purpose. The first part of this study is focused in deriving an optimal solution for a solid and waffle slab system which are later on considered as constituents of all stories of the 14-story building. In the second part, it is elaborated the effect of both slab systems over the 14-story building model. This study aims to emphasize the advantages of mid-rise buildings constituted of waffle slab system over the buildings characterized with solid types of slabs, in terms of economy, structural safety and performance.展开更多

The study of tourism competitiveness has been focused on different factors that can enhance the prosperity of a destination. One of these factors is innovation. Innovation makes destination's enterprises more advanced and efficient, therefore more productive. Innovation is an enhancer of competitiveness and a generator of prosperity because innovation in every aspect (technology, knowledge, organization, and processes) will provide a better quality of life for the inhabitants of the destination. The incidence of innovation on these concepts is validated by a structural equation model. We measure innovation by a range of indicators and through a factor analysis; we get the most relevant indicators of innovation for the model developed in Spain.展开更多
