How this node works
The slab bears a few centimetres on the beam over a pad; an end core is broken open and, with tie reinforcement, cast together with the continuous topping, so the precast plank becomes continuous with the structure.
Key points
- Bearing beam / ring beam
- Hollow-core slab
- Minimum bearing (pad)
- Collaborating topping
- Tie reinforcement
- Opened, filled core
