Behaviour of Precast Prestressed Hollow Core Slabs with and without FRP Strengthening.
Masters thesis, Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad.
Abstract
Hollow core slabs are Prestressed precast floor/roof elements which have longitudinal cores running along the span and are primarily used floor slab elements in building construction. Structural eficiency and increased exural capacity of prestressed precast hollow core (PPHC) slabs allows larger spans to be built leading to cost savings. Strengthening of these slabs may be required for several reasons to maintain their structural integrity. The main reasons include, material degradation, increased dead or live loads, architectural modifications, installation of heavy machinery and openings in slabs.
