Abstract
This report contains a study of the deflections of prefabricated reinforced concrete slabs in an
effort to obtain acceptable span lengths. The objective of the report is to investigate the
parameters that affect deflections and to determine whether it is possible to increase the
standard span of these slabs without changing structural properties such as depth, width or the
quality of concrete and reinforcement bars. A comparison of calculation methods according to
Eurocode 2 and Swedish structural codes concerning deflection, shrinkage and creep was
undertaken. A loading test was also performed on two prefab R/C slab elements and the results
discussed.
The overall results show that it is possible to increase the standard spans of... (More)

discussed.
The overall results show that it is possible to increase the standard spans of the slabs and that it
is also possible to reduce the amount of reinforcement in the slabs for spans up to 6 m. (Less)
