Vibration behaviour of pre-stressed precast hollow core floor with concrete topping thickness and boundary condition
… the length, which is made similar to lightweight concrete floor properties. These properties are prone to the floor vibration issue, which are also influenced by its mass and stiffness. The preliminary study on prediction analysis is performed to determine a testing location. Two-floor areas (Area …

Investigation of Concrete Mixtures to Reduce Differential Shrinkage Cracking in Inverted T Beam System
… inverted T-beams finished with a cast-in-place concrete topping. The system offers enhanced performance against reflective cracking and reduces the likelihood of cracking due to time dependent effects. Differential shrinkage is believed to be one of the causes of deck cracking in inverted T-beam …

Shear and Peel Stresses at the Interface between Hollowcore Slabs and the Topping Concrete
… buildings. They are precast/prestressed concrete elements produced using the extrusion process. Their surface finish can be “machine-cast” or “intentionally roughened”. A typical floor consists of a number of hollowcore slabs that are connected together. Prestressing causes hollowcore …

Development of a Composite Concrete Bridge System for Short-to-Medium-Span Bridges
… inverted T-beams finished with a cast-in-place concrete topping. The system offers enhanced performance against reflective cracking, and reduces the likelihood of cracking due to time dependent effects. The effects of transverse bending due to concentrated wheel loads are investigated with …

Corrosion Testing and Modeling of Chloride-Induced Corrosion Deterioration of Concrete Bridge Decks
… bridge deck was overlaid with latex modified concrete. The New York bridge deck, which was built in 1990, is six inch concrete topping over prestressed adjacent box beams structure with epoxy-coated bar in the negative moment area. The Minnesota bridge was rebuilt in 1984. The deck was rebuilt …
