Abstract

Test reports are presented which demonstrate the load transfer capabilities of hollow-core slabs with grouted shear keys in typical floor construction. Test panels contained interior slabs without end bearing  and interior slabs with a large opening framed at mid-span. Deflection measurements verify full load distribution.
