Document information

Concrete industrial ground floors - a guide to their design and construction. 3rd edition

Series/doc. No Technical Report 34
Year 2003
Abstract Gives comprehensive guidance on design and construction of concrete ground floors for industrial use. The review has led to significantly better guidance on thickness design. Surface regularity requirements have been reviewed in detail in the wake of new survey work. The guidance on concrete specification now reflects current thinking on materials and construction practice. Where possible, the guidance in the Report is non-prescriptive, to allow designers and contractors to use their skills to develop economic solutions for particular performance requirements. Intended primarily for designers and consultants, it will also be invaluable for contractors, and owners and users of industrial facilities.
