from buildings_analytics.analyzer import Slab

# Create a Slab object with requirements in brackets
my_slab = Slab(span=10, prefab='no', use='residential', MEP_integration='yes')

# Outputs the estimated weight per m2 and plots them for each available slab
my_slab.compute_weight(output = True, plot = True)
