Sentence examples for slab support from inspiring English sources

Lane separations at longitudinal joints not only allow water to infiltrate into layers under the concrete slabs and deteriorate slab support, but degrade load transfer efficiency (LTE) along longitudinal joints, resulting in an increase in load-related stresses in concrete slabs and poor performance of pavement.

The bridge system consisted of a cast-in-situ RC slab, which was placed on top of the GRS immediately behind the FHR facings, i.e. the bridge was constructed as a simply-supported slab supported by a pair of GRS abutments, without the use of bearings.

A waffle slab supports loads equally well along both axes and is thus most efficiently used to cover square modules.

Typical construction consists of a concrete slab supported by steel beams.

The tested beam comprised a concrete slab supported by profiled metal decking, connected to an asymmetric fabricated steel I-beam using welded shear studs.

The selected bridge is an approximately 60 m (196 ft) long multi-span steel structure with a continuous reinforced concrete slab supported on two longitudinal steel girders.
