Description
Summary:The article presents the results of testing a damaged reinforced concrete slab, which is located in the underground garage constituting the two lowest floors of a residential and service building. During the tests numerous cracks in the slab were inventoried. Some cracks covered the entire thickness of the RC slab and floor layers made of synthetic resin. The result of these damages was penetration through the slab of water from molten slush and the need to limit the parking places on the lower level of the garage. Conducted analysis of technical documentation, analysis of damage morphology, control material tests and structure computations allowed assessment of the causes of existing damages to the floor slab and ability to develop recommendations regarding the methods of its repair.
