Single pour industrial floor slabs : specification, design, construction and behaviour

The advent of automatically laser controlled screeding machines has led to the use of fibre reinforced concrete, a technical innovation which has changed the design as well as the construction of concrete floors. This publication provides all the information needed by designers and contractors involved in ground bearing industrial floor design, dealing in detail with the design, construction, specification and behaviour of single pour industrial floor slabs. 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
