Has anyone ever used anything like this in your designs etc?

Not sure how I will draw that for a second floor.

A customer wants to use that, otherwise i would just use floor truss for a clear span of 26'

Never used it but I would just draw a thick concrete slab and you can add circles in your section, if that's your concern, on your cross-section for the holes. You could also use Solid Cylinders on a layer you can turn off on the floor plan if you want but probably not worth it.

I have used it for garage floors over a tuck under garage (garage over garage) and recently used it for a fireproof gun vault in a residence.

If you search the Sketchup Warehouse for "Hollowcore Plank, you will find a couple models that you can create a symbol from and adjust size as needed.

Since once it's in place you can't see the cores in the model, I'd just use a solid slab and create a symbol to use on your sections and ignore the rest. Unless of course you are using Softlist and then it may be different.

I've designed a residence that used Strescore materials to create a garage over a basement swimming pool room.  The panels were supported by poured foundation walls with basically a deep brickledge on the inside for them to rest on.  As for the Softplan drawing, it was done similar to what Keith described above.  I made a cross section drawing and drew in the Strescore panel details.

We use them when putting a basement under a garage.  They typically have a 4" cap poured over the top and sit on interior brick ledges.
