Riassunto:

Single pour industrial floor slabs provides all the information needed by designers and contractors involved in floor design. The design, construction, specification and behaviour of single pour industrial floor slabs are all dealt with in detail. The properties of fibre reinforced concrete are explained as well as the way such materials can be placed quickly and conveniently by laser-guided screeding machines. The manner in which ground conditions govern floor performance is clarified and soils are classified in such a way that their influence on floor design and construction can be assessed. Details of different types of joint are also included and their construction is illustrated by a case study.
The different usages of industrial floors are explained and warehouse storage systems are illustrated. The way in which these systems apply loading to the floor is covered and a design method is provided which allows the user to design floors subjected to point, patch and distributed loads. A new design method is explained in which the designer reduces the loading regime to a single equivalent load which is then used in conjunction with a series of design charts. By this means, the structural design of an industrial floor is reduced to a simple procedure which engineers will find intuitive. Case studies are used to explain the design and the construction processes from concept to construction. Floor flatness, its achievement and the long-term behaviour of a floor are also covered.
Single pour industrial floor slabs is a comprehensive guide which all those involved in industrial floors will find invaluable as a single source of data for single pour floors.
