Allowance should be made for the bending moments due to concentrated loads, using methods based on the clastic theory, such as those of Pigeaud or Westergaard, or other acceptable ‘method. Alternatively, allowance should be based on the load-factor method 52 CP 14 Rares: 1965 ‘of design on the same basis as given for slabs with uniform loading in Sub- clause 314e, If a slab is simply supported on two opposite edges and carries one or more concentrated loads in a line in the direction of the span, it should be designed to resist the maximum bending moment caused by the loading system. Such bending moment may be assumed to be resisted by an effective width of slab (measured parallel (o the supports) as Follows: 1. For solid slabs, the effective width may be taken as the sum of the load ‘width and 2-4 (1 — xf) where x i the distance from the nearer support to the sectiog? under consideration and 1s the span, 2. For other slabs, except where specially provided for, the effective width will depend on the ratio of the transverse and longitudinal flexural Tigiites ofthe slab.

Loading tests on a completed structure should be ‘made if required by the specification or if there is reasonable doubt as to the ‘adequacy of the strength of the structure. Such tests need not be made until the expiry of 56 days of effective hardening of the concrete, tn such tests, the test load, ineluding the dead load, should be the greater of |. the sum uf the dead loud plus 1% times the specified superimposed Fox, and 2. 1'4 tumes the sum of the dead load and the specified superimposed load and the fest loads should be maintained for a period of 24 hours.

Where only part of the structure 1s t be tested. special precautions may be necessary to ensure that all the Inemibers actually under test are subjected to the fall test load, with proper allowance made for load sharing between members.* Ifwithin 24 hours of the removal of the load, the structure does not show a recovery of at least 75 per cent of the maximum deflection shown during the 24 hours under load, the est loading should be repeated. The structure sould bbe considered to have failed to pass the test if the recovery after the second test is not al least 75 per cent of the maximum deflection showa during the second test, If during the test, or upon removal of the load, the structure shows signs of weakness, undue deflection or faulty construction, it should be reconstructed fr strengthened as necessary, SECTION SEVEN: MAINTENANCE AND PROTECTION 701. General. in many cases maintenance will not be needed for dense concrete constructed in accordance with this Code, Where, however, the concrete is exposed (0 altack by weather or chemical action maintenance may be needed. Protective coatings will delay or prevent deterioration of the concrete in such ‘cases. The protective coating to be used will depend upon the particular form of exposure, burt it should be durable and able to adjust itself to elastic and thermal movements of the structure. All protective coatings should be maintained in {good condition by renewed application during the life of the structure, Any concrete paint used should be suitable for the alkaline character of concrete. Suitable types of paint and the precautions to be taken in their use are dealt with in CP 231, * Painting * A periodical check should be made (eg. every 3 or $ years) to detect any ‘excessive cracking or other defect of the concrete ‘Where corrosion of the bars has caused staining or has loosened the concrete cover, the life of the structure can be considerably prolonged by exposing, cleaning and recovering the bars. 25 ee ——FIRE-RESISTANCE-OF REINFOREED-CONCRETE- NOTE, The Cole Drating Commie is indie to the Joint Fite Researgh Organon for the evarimendatnsconased i ABpendi Al.

At reentrant comers, or al substantial changes in construction, care should be taken to ensure that the ties are adequately anchored into the adjacent floor or otherwise made effective. «Peripheral tie, Ateach floor and roof level an effectively uninterrupted pesipheral ti should be provided, located within 12 m of the edge of the butling or perimeter wall.

I I ! INTRODUCTION in May 1970, a committee was appointed by the Governor fo study the implication of the increasing world-wide use of the metric system, and to advise whether or not the need existed for a change to this system in Hong Kong. Following the submission of the Second Interim Report of the Committee in February 1971, the Hong Kong Government announced on 26 th May i971 its formal acceptance of the recommendation and to “ start planning To introduce metric units into Public Works and into the Building Ordinance". The system of units being adopted is the $1 ( Systeme International d/Unites ), an extension and refinement ot the traditional metric system Ccommonly known as the Technical Metric Unit ). It was approved in 1960 by the Conférence Générale des Poids et Mesures which is the body responsible for maintaining standards of measurements. Since then nearly thirty countries have decided to make it the only legally accepted system and it is clearly destined Te become the universal sfandard. The main features of § ] affecting structural design are os follows i= 12 The metre Cm) and k:logram Ckg) taking the place of the centimetre Com) and gram (9) of the Technical Metric system. 2) The unit of force, the newton CN, kgms*), is Yaking the place of kilogram force (kgf). It is defined in B.S. 3763 1964, “the Internationo! system ($1) Units”, as” that force which, when epplied To a body having a mass of one Kilogram y gives it an acceleration of one metre per second squared (mjSect)" Since standard gravitatronal acceleration is 9° 80665 m/sect, therefore | NewTon = | kgf /9- 80665 =01 019716 kgf Fo102 kegf and lif = 4448N . 3) The unit of pressure and stress is the pascal, symbol R V N/mm STP IN /mm = 1 MR ‘Multiples of units ore normally to be restricted to steps of thousand ond similarly fractions To steps of a thousandth. eg loo y= 1 kg fooo kg = I tonne (+), (= 1 metric ton) For dther units and basic conversion factors, see tables on paycs 2.3% 4 For many Yeors design engineers have become familiar with the use of design tables ond charts in order to save time in designing reinforced concrete structures, and it is hoped that this set of design aids would be found useful when they are faced with the new system of units.
