    The continental block engage in the subduction with building orogenic wedge; 3. The new slab develops and two slabs exhibit a deep strike-slip movement (Double circle means pointing out of the screen; Cross inside the circle means pointing into the screen; 4. New slab moves further downward; 5. The old slab breaks off; 6. The new slab subducts ...

  3. Lift slab construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_slab_construction

    Lift slab construction (also called the Youtz-Slick Method) is a method of constructing concrete buildings by casting the floor or roof slab on top of the previous slab and then raising (jacking) the slab up with hydraulic jacks. This method of construction allows for a large portion of the work to be completed at ground level, negating the ...

  4. Structural support - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_support

    It is a rigid type of support or connection. The application of the fixed support is beneficial when we can only use single support, and people most widely used this type as the only support for a cantilever. [7] They are common in beam-to-column connections of moment-resisting steel frames and beam, column and slab connections in concrete frames.

  5. Open web steel joist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_web_steel_joist

    The CJ-Series Joists are capable of supporting larger floor or roof loadings due to the attachment of the concrete slab to the top chord of the composite joist. Shear connection between the concrete slab and steel joist is typically made by the welding of shear studs through the steel deck to the underlying CJ-Series Composite Steel Joist. [2]

  6. Concrete pavement restoration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_Pavement_Restoration

    Dowel bar retrofit (DBR) is a process that re-establishes load transfer capability on joints and cracks by installing epoxy-coated, round steel dowels into existing concrete pavement across transverse joints and/or cracks. Slots are cut using diamond-tipped saw blades; the existing concrete is removed and the dowels are placed in the slots ...

    The Filigree Wideslab method is a process for construction of concrete floor decks from two interconnected concrete placements, one precast in a factory, and the other done in the field.

    Park's approach was based on rigid plastic slab strip theory, and required the assumption of a critical deflection of one half of the slab depth at failure. Park's approach was later extended by Park and Gamble [9] in their method for predicting the plastic load-deformation response of laterally restrained slabs.
