Abstract

Provides guidance on the design of Asymmetric Slimflor Beams (ASB) with precast concrete hollow-core units. Considers construction of ASB sections and PC Units with and without a concrete topping. Practical guidance is given on tolerances that affect the bearing of the PC Units, and the end preparation of units to provide clearance for concrete encasement of the ASB section. A step-by-step procedure is set out for all the different loading cases.
