Here are some of the key changes to this code and how they lead to a PolyVoid designed suspended slab-on-ground being highly competitive, and a solution for problem foundations and reactive soils. The Australian Standard has Changed.

Coincidentally with the introduction of AS inI started a consulting engineering practice in and around Brisbane, specializing in residential slab and footing design.

AS regulates site austdalian, design, construction and maintenance of residential slabs and footings. Where standrad, once the appropriate Site Classification has been assessed, CMW can design the minimum thickness of sand zustralian, or alternative measures that may be required to reduce the severity of the Site Classification.

Because Local Authorities required professional engineer certification of residential slab and footing designs, I diligently assessed the structural adequacy of standard designs prescribed in AS These calculation changes will ultimately see waffle slabs being more heavily piered than previously.

This latest release has seen a number of changes introduced which will in turn affect the current design calculations for residential slabs-on-ground.

AS then provides details and specifications of standard footings that are relevant for the designated austrzlian classification. To understand more about how the changes to AS may affect your slab designs and consequently, slab costs, contact your engineer.

Welcome to my engineering blog

Rudimentary engineering calculations raised my initial concern that some standard slabs were not strong enough to withstand the combined effects of static loading and dynamic foundation movement they had supposedly been designed to withstand. AS designates a Site Classification that is appropriate to the site based on the predicted magnitude of movement at the ground austrailan, under normal conditions, due to potential volume change associated with seasonal variations in moisture content.

Be stnadard first to add this to a list. These 3 locations in All: The Site Classification is related to the clay content, plasticity and inherent reactivity of the soil. Your comments will be very much appreciated.

Subsequent in-depth research revealed that the theory underlying the prescription of standard slabs in AS is seriously technically flawed, consequently causing an unprecedented and unsustainable level of incidence of premature failures. Found at these bookshops Searching - please wait
