Standard EP precast hollow core slabs (Wote:standard width is 1,200mm) Hollow Core Slabs in stockyard, ¥ NSL Eastern Protech 0088! ie 1.2 MANUFACTURING + NSL astern Protech Hollow core slabs are manufactured on longline prestressing beds using state-of-the-art automated production process. 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. Extruder for production of hollow core slab . 2.DESIGN ‘The design is_generally based on the following Standards and Technical Guide: * British Standard $8110: 1997 - Structural Use of Concrete + EN 13369 - Common rules for precast concrete products. + EN 1168 - Hollow Core Slabs = FIP Recommendations - Precast Prestressed Hollow Core Floors. Hollow core slabs can be regarded as the best section for a structural flexural member. The design of the cross-section allows the concrete to be used optimally both in the compression and tension zones. ‘Theoretically, the concrete below the compression zone which is redundant is omitted by longitudinal Voids, thus reducing the weight of slab. By applying prestressing force with tendons at bottom of slab will increase tensile capacity of the slab. This gives hollow core slab the distinct advantage for higher load ‘artying capacity and achieving long span capability. Floor consisting of jointed hollow core slabs provides a monolithic ‘slab structure. In order to achieve this, the joint between adjacent hollow core slabs must be properly grouted. The jointed hollow core slabs are capable of distributing vertical loads within the slab ‘field’ and provide a rigid diaphragm to transmit lateral loads to the stabilizing structure. 2.1 CONCRETE TOPPING Hollow core slab floor can be used without structural topping. . However itis recommended that a layer of concrete topping to be provided in order for easy leveling of floor, In addition, hairlines cracks can be minimized ‘on floors and this topping can also serve as a barrier feprevent water leakage through the joints of hollow core slabs. Generally, the thicknesses of topping is specified to be between 50mm to 85mm with C 30 concrete. The structural topping is normally designed to prevent crack at serviceability limit state and.should normally be reinforced with a layer of wire mesh and negative reinforcement. Stability tie reinforcement may also be provided wholly within the concrete topping. Hollow core slabs with topping hall be designed as composite structure hence increasing the load-bearing capacity of the slab.

OPENINGS IN HOLLOW CORE SLABS Different sizes of openings can be made into hollow core slabs: 2. Very large opening where one or more slabs are totally cut-The load from the slab(s) with no support will be transferred to the adjacent slabs mainly through the shear keys and through a “hidden” steel or cast in situ concrete spreader beam. Steel spreader beam. Cast in situ concrete spreader beam. b. Medium size openings in hollow core slabs are usually made at the factory. The reduced cross section has to be designed to withstand the design loads. Small openings can be made at site by diamond tipped coring. 4. GUIDELINES FOR ECONOMICAL SLAB DESIGN Standard hollow core slabs width is 1,200mm and the columns/walls centres should preferably be of modular coordinated dimension of 12M (where 1M = 100mm). Otherwise, floor slabs generally should be arranged in a way to minimize cast in situ strips and to maximize the Usage of full 1,200 mm wide slabs. However hollow core slabs can be cut to narrower widths (at a higher cost), should the need arises. Too big span / depth ratios, exceeding 35, should be avoided. The cost will be higher and the possibility of additional openings will be reduced thus restricting the flexibility for renovation. 5.

SOUND INSULATION Hollow core slabs used as structural floor units offer excellent sound insulation properties associated with concrete and the longitudinal voids give further dampening effect.
