CONCRETE TECHNOLOGY L.L.C.1- INTRODUCTION
Hollow core slab which is a precast,prestressed concrete member with a continues voidsprovided to reduce weight and , therefore, cost and as a side benefits, to use for concealedelectrical or mechanical runs
Primarily used for floor or roof deck system, and panels, spandrel members and bridge deckunits.
2- MANUFACTURING
Hollow core slab units are casting using extrusion system, where a very low slumpConcrete is forced through the machine.The cores are formed with argues or tubes with the concrete being compacted
Around the cores as shown below.

3-Why CTS hollow core slab
3-1-CTs hollow core slab providing economical, efficient floor and roof system.
The hollow core slabs voids may be used for electrical or mechanical runs.
3-2-The casting of the hollow core slab units is performed by high technology procedures gives the slab a
high quality and very low use of material and a very fast delivery.
3-3-The hollow core slab provides the efficiency of a prestressed member for load capacity , span range
and deflection control.
Excellent fire resistance is another attribute of the hollow core slab.
Used as floor ceiling assemblies hollow core slabs have the excellent sound transmission characteristics.

DIFFERENT HOLLOW CORE SLAB SECTIONS5-structural design5-1-Services Concrete Technology gives here the guide for you to design the hollow core slab units, but the
final decision is for our experienced structural engineers whom always will be ready to assist andadvise you on all matters related to the design of the hollow core slab units.5-2-How to check your slab As the most of precast members, hollow core slab design as a simply supported slab in accordance with
British standard BS110. The main structural functions of floors are span, load bearing, transverse
distribution of vertical loads, diaphragm distribution of the horizontal actions as well as resistance against
fire and accidental actions affecting the floor elements or the supporting structure.
For guidance only concrete technology gives here curves for the slab design range and the load capacity for
the varies slab thickness for varies strands on page 4 to page 7

6-STRUCTURAL TOPPIN G
Hollow core slab are normally used without structural topping. However, in the case of seismicaction, frequent changes of load or important point loads, topping may be indicated.
The thickness should be at least 50 mm, concrete quality C40. The hollow core slab and thetopping will act as a composite slab and the moment capacity of the hollow core slabs can beenhanced.
FIGURE (3)SHOWING STRUCTURAL TOPPING AND REINFORCEMENT MESH
7- Diaphragm action
The diaphragm action of hollow core slab is realized through a good joint design to transfer ofhorizontal forces to the main structure system.The peripheral reinforcement plays a determinate role not only to cop with the tensile forces ofthe diaphragm action but also to prevent the relative horizontal displacement of the hollow coreunits, so that the longitudinal joints can take up shear forces.The positioning and minimum proportioning ties, required by PCI codes, is shown in the figurebelow.

Opening in hollow core slabs are made as indicated in the figure. The dimensions are limit to thevalues given in the table. The small holes may be formed at the center of the longitudinal voids.The maximum void size is limited to the width of the void.
Holes are normally made in the fresh concrete during the production process.The edges of the opening are rough. The possible dimensions for openings are given in the table.

11-Storage and transportation
11-1-Storage
When storing hollow core slabs the following requirements should be taken into consideration:
-Storage should only be permitted on solid ground forming a level footing.
-Slab stacks are recommended to be a maximum of 3.50 5.00 m high depending on the slabtype.Only slabs of the same length and with no large recesses should be stacked together and directlyon top of each other.
FIGURE (7)
FIGURE (8)
Hollow cores storage-Wooden spacers should be used. All spacers should be stacked exactly on top of each other .seefig.( 4 , 5 )
-Special care should be given to slab with large openings.They must be stored in separate piles with only some 2-3 slabs on top of each other.The overhanging length beyond spacers should be between 200mm-400mm in normal practiceand a maximum of 1000mm, when top reinforcement is used. All damage caused to slab in thestockyard should be reported to the quality control staff.

-Transportation
The hollow core slabs are hoisted with specially designed clamps hanging on a steel spreaderbeams. The use of ailing alone is strictly forbidden.
Hollow core slab are transporting from our factory to the site on flat bed trailers.
Full slabs are lifted using the specially designed lifting equipments (as shown).

-Erection
The erection of hollow core slab should be done according to the instructions of concrete.Technologys
design engineers If needed concrete technology will provide
method of statements of the principles of site erection.After erection the longitudinal joints
between the hollow core slab should b filled with grout,the joint should be filled carefully since they fulfill
a structural function bothin the transversal load distributionand the horizontal floor diaphragm action.
When a structural topping is to be used, it is advisable to fill the longitudinal point, Immediately prior to the
casting of the topping.
-Fixing
There are several ways of fixing hanging loads to the hollow core slabs for example, specialsockets drilled into the voids, anchors placed into the longitudinal joint or the top of the slab.
