Moisture redistribution in screeded concrete slabs
… make the future relative humidity in a screeded concrete slab predictable. Residual moisture in screeded concrete slabs may redistribute to the top screed surface under semi-permeable flooring, thus elevating the relative humidity, RH, and possibly exceed the critical humidity level. Passing the …

Properties of functionally graded concrete slabs
… is the one prescribed in ASTM D7313 for asphalt concrete. Several field tests were run to examine the sensitivity of the test relative to the location in a pavement slab (i.e. top of the pavement, bottom of the pavement, etc). It was found that the DCT test could, with statistical confidence, …

The real strength of laterally restrained reinforced concrete slabs
… punching strength of laterally restrained slabs subjected to concentrated loading, good correlation with experimental data was achieved. The proposed method can predict both modes of punching failures, i.e flexural and shear. This suggests that the proposed method is more suitable for …

Punching failure and compressive membrane action in reinforced concrete slabs
… and compressive membrane action in reinforced concrete slabs provides a basis for the development of a more realistic design approach for continuous slabs subjected to concentrated loadings.The results of an extensive series of tests on one quarter scale models of the interior slab—column …

The response of reinforced concrete slabs to hard missile impact
… and scabbing of model, steel reinforced concrete targets. The test rig was especially designed using high pressure compressed air to accelerate a steel missile along a barrel to impact upon the target. This system can produce a variety of impact forces by either varying the applied …

Preslab - micro-computer analysis and design of prestressed concrete slabs
… for the analysis and design of prestressed flat slabs is presented. The constant strain triangle and the discreet Kirchhoff plate bending triangle are combined to provide an efficient "shell" element. These triangles are used for the finite element analysis of prestressed flat slabs. An efficient …

Strengthening reinforced concrete slabs using a combination of CFRP and UHPC
Reinforced concrete (RC) structures are widely used in construction. Due to aging infrastructure, increased loads, and inadequate maintenance, RC structures need to be retrofitted for prolonged lifespan and increased capacity. Traditional methods of strengthening involve the installation of fiber …

Behaviour of continuous concrete slabs reinforced with FRP bars. Experimental and computational investigations on the use of basalt and carbon fibre reinforced polymer bars in continuous concrete slabs.
… reinforcement for simple and continuous concrete slabs is presented. Eight continuously and four simply concrete slabs were constructed and tested to failure. Two continuously supported steel reinforced concrete slabs were also tested for comparison purposes. The slabs were classified …

Fracture-Based Method to Determine the Flexural Load Capacity of Concrete Slabs
… in terms of the initial pavement design, concrete material selection, and the slab's cracking performance throughout its service life. New pavement technologies and concrete materials continue to be developed to face these challenges, but existing design methods based on empirical fatigue …

Load transfer from high-strength concrete columns through lower strength concrete slabs
… to investigate the effects on high strength concrete columns due to the presence of ordinary strength floor concrete layer in between. The specimens consisted of four sandwiched type of columns and two edge columns. The four columns, 55 in. long, had a 7 in. layer of floor concrete. These …

Yield-line analysis and experimental study of reinforced concrete slabs containing openings
Four rectangular, isotropically reinforced concrete slabs were constructed and loaded until collapse. All slabs were fixed on three edges with the fourth edge free. Three slabs contained openings at various locations while the fourth remained solid. The magnitudes of deflections were measured …

Effects of Shear Reinforcement on the Large-Deflection Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Slabs
… and manuals for blast-resistant reinforced concrete structures stipulate the use of shear reinforcement in roof, floor, and wall slabs irrespective of shear stress levels. The primary purpose of the shear reinforcement is not to resist shear forces, but rather to improve performance in the …
