Strength development of hollow core slabs can be accelerated by heat curing which provides shorter cycle time for speedy delivery. The finished hollow core slabs are then cut to the desired length using diamond-tipped automatic saw once the concrete has attained sufficient strength, Long-line prestressing beds. 1.3 MATERIALS Hollow core slabs are made from zero-slump concrete of C50 compressive strength. The prestressing tendons are indented 7 - wire low relaxation strands to BS 5896-1980 with a strength of 1860 N/mm2 Tendon sizes are normally of 9,6mm and 12.9mm in diameter.
