W /(mK) (Watt per meter per Kelvin)
k- Thermal Conductivity
Thermal conductivity is the time rate of steady state heat flow through a unit area of a homogeneous material induced by a unit temperature gradient in a direction perpendicular to that unit area, W/mK.k = q L T
Where,
L - Thickness of the specimen (m)
T - Temperature (K)
q - Heat flow rate (W/m²)
Thermal conductance is the time rate of steady state heat flow through a unit area of a material or construction induced by a unit temperature difference between the body surfaces, in W/m² .K.Correct Option: A

Himanshu Parikh practice focuses on urban planning, infrastructure design, and environmental upgrading. He developed a new concept for slum development, Slum Networking. On the structural engineering front, his work offers an alternative paradigm to "green buildings" in order to deliver affordable and low embodied energy structures within the holistic framework of light, ventilation and thermal comfort.

Generally, the term flat slab means a reinforced concrete slab with or without drops, supported generally without beams, by columns with or without flared column heads. In flat slabs, the loads on the slab are directly transferred by plate action to the columns, whereas in conventional slabs with beams, the loads are first transferred from slabs to the beams and then from beams to the column.
