Precast Concrete Products: Ribbed Floor Elements
Also Known As:
The BS EN 13224:2011 standard outlines the requirements and evaluation of conformity for precast ribbed elements used in floors or roofs. These elements are made of reinforced or prestressed normal weight concrete and typically consist of a top and/or bottom slab and one or more ribs, with the potential inclusion of transverse ribs.
The standard includes specific requirements for minor floor elements, as well as addressing terminology, performance criteria, tolerances, relevant physical properties, test methods, and aspects of transport and erection. However, it is important to note that the standard does not cover the load-bearing capacity of these elements, which must be determined through testing.
Annex A of the standard provides examples of precast elements considered within its scope, while Annex B lists requirements for minor floor elements.
