Sentence examples for slabs on ground from inspiring English sources
Four large-scale concrete slabs on ground subjected to three different stress ranges have been tested to fatigue failure.
The principles of this slab fatigue crack growth procedure can now be extended to estimate the remaining life in uncracked or partially-cracked concrete slabs on ground.
The addition of macro-fibers to concrete slabs on ground have been shown to increase flexural capacity, fatigue resistance, reduce crack deterioration rates, and assist in shear transfer across joints and cracks.
This paper summarizes the results from an experimental study on the behavior of concrete slabs-on-ground in a controlled environment.
The paper shows and discusses the results of an experimental program aimed at studying the flexural performance of concrete slabs-on-ground reinforced with steel fibers to be used in housing.
The test program characterizes the dimensional properties of selected concrete materials, evaluating their performance as real slabs-on-ground in that they are exposed to the controlled environment on the top surface and to the ground moisture on the bottom surface.
An in situ experiment designed to monitor the thermal behaviour of a real heated slab-on-ground floor is described.
Post-tensioned floors are invariably designed with bonded (grouted) tendons, since AS 3600 prohibits the use of unbonded tendons except for slab-on-ground construction.
The predictions are conservative as an estimator of when petroleum hydrocarbon vapours might come in contact with a slab-on-ground building since additional sources of oxygen due to advective flow or diffusion through the slab are ignored.
This study presents mechanical and durability aspects of using glass powder (GP) to replace 20% of cement content in RCC used for interior and exterior slab-on-ground during construction of Tricentris plant in Lachute-QC/Canada Lachute-QC/Canada
Because the use of encapsulated PT systems is now required in the U.S. for all elevated unbonded PT floors and would possibly be required even for slabs-on-ground in the U.S. or for PT construction in Korea soon, the test results in this study will help provide viable options for those in need and promote application of more durable PT systems.
