Strescore plank is a precast, prestressed concrete member with continuous voids provided to reduce weight. It is commonly used as a floor or roof deck. Used as floor and ceiling assemblies, Strescore plank has an excellent sound transmission class rating, ranging from about 50 to 53 without topping. The impact insulation class rating starts at about 26 for a plain plank, and may be increased to over 78 with the addition of carpeting and underlay. Various fire ratings can also be achieved depending on floor or ceiling finish. Precast prestressed Strescore plank is extruded on long line casting beds using zero slump concrete. The concrete is fed into the extruder and then forced into the compaction space using feeding screws, which also push the extruder along the casting bed. Forming dies follow the feeding screws to give the required shape to the voids. Once cured, the Strescore plank is then cut to length. Introduction 1 Strescore Precast/Prestressed Concrete Hollowcore Plank NOISE IS REDUCED ADVANTAGES OF STRESCORE PLANK STRESCORE PLANK Strescore plank is widely known for providing economical and efficient floor and roof systems. The top surface can be prepared for installation of a floor covering by feathering the joints with a latex cement mix, installing non-structural fill concrete ranging from 1/2 inch to 2 inches thick, or by pouring a composite structural concrete topping. The underside can be used as a finished ceiling either by painting or by applying an acoustical spray. Strescore plank is cambered as with most prestressed structural members. Areas with differential cambers may cause a problem and should be recognized and dealt with in the design layout. Wall locations may hide such a joint, but the door swing should be directed to the least variable side. Camber can also be accommodated by providing a topping. The quantity of topping required must consider the amount of camber and the function of the floor. Camber, camber growth, and deflections must be taken into account in roofing details. Where changes in relative slab position occur, counterflashings are suggested to accommodate such changes. Introduction 2 Strescore Precast/Prestressed Concrete Hollowcore Plank DESIGN RESPONSIBILITIES Final design of the individual plank is usually the responsibility of Strescon Limited. The planks are designed according to the latest requirements of ACI standard 318 or CSA standard A23.3, to carry the loads specified in the contract documents. The design of the supporting structure, diaphram action, lateral loads, bracing anchorage, and stability of the various components is the responsibility of the project engineer. which occur in the plank. All openings larger than 12” in size should be accurately located on the drawings so the effect on the Strescore plank can be considered during the design. Lateral load transfer can be accomplished by weld plates or grouted connections. It should be noted that PCI recommends that prestressed concrete components such as Strescore plank should not be rigidly connected at both ends. This is to prevent damage to the plank or supporting structure due to creep, shrinkage and temperature change movements Strescon Limited will generally produce a set of erection drawings consisting of layout, section, and detailed drawings. The layout drawings will show the location of each plank as well the location of openings and any details which affect the planks. The architect or project engineer should carefully review the erection drawings during the approval process to ensure that openings are properly sized, located, and all details have been properly incorporated. Introduction 3 Strescore Precast/Prestressed Concrete Hollowcore Plank FRAMING CONCEPT The primary consideration in developing a framing scheme using Strescore plank is the span length. Please refer to the load tables section for recommended limits on Strescore plank. Consideration must be given to factors such as superimposed loads, partitions, or a large number of openings. Each of these factors will result in higher load capacity requirements. The fire resistance rating required for the application will also affect the load capacity of a plank. It is more economical to have the plan dimensions fit the plank module. Non-module plan dimensions will be accommodated using partial width planks, therefore, joint locations and overall detailing should be discussed with Strescon Limited. Construction tolerances must be accounted for in developing a plan layout. Tolerance on plank length should be accomodated by allowing a gap at the plank ends in the bearing detail. Except for special situations, keyway grout is normally a sand and Portland cement mixture in proportions of about 3:1. The amount of water used will be determined by the method used to place the grout in the keyway. It will generally result in a wet mix. The configuration of the key is such that vertical load transfer can still occur with the presence of a shrinkage crack. Rarely is grout strength required in excess of 3000 psi.

B. C. D. E. F. G. H. Length: + 1/2 inch Width: + 1/4 inch Depth: + 1/4 inch Position of individual strands: + 1/2 inch Position of strand group: + 1/4 inch Squareness of ends: + 1/2 inch Position of openings: + 2 inches Positions of plates: + 2 Inches CAMBER Camber is the upward deflection of a prestressed member and resulting from the eccentricity between the prestressing force and the center of gravity of the cross section. Since both prestressing area and eccentricity are established by the required design load and span length, camber is a result of the design rather than a design parameter. Camber and deflection will change with time due to concrete creep, prestress loss, and the amount of prestressing. The time dependant cambers and deflections are not predictable with any degree of accuracy, and any calculation of long term movement must be considered to be only an estimate. Also, adjacent plank having different lengths, strand patterns or openings will have differential camber. This may be minimized by leveling during erection. Design Information 1 Strescore Precast/Prestressed Concrete Hollowcore Plank STRESCORE PLANK DESIGN CHECKLIST This Strescore checklist has been developed to assist the Architect and/or Engineer in developing plans and specifications. Please contact Strescon Limited regarding your requirements. 1. FIRE RATINGS: A. What is the fire rating? If more than 2 hours is required, contact Strescon Limited. 2. LOADING CONDITIONS A. Are loads specified on the drawing? B. Are there line loads (such as masonry walls or face brick) supported on plank, in addition to specified uniform loads? If yes, capacity of plank should be checked. C. Are there concentrated loads (such as columns or mechanical equipment) supported on plank, in addition to specified uniform loads? D. Roof loads 1. Are there vertical protrusions such as parapets, penthouses, stair wells, elevator shafts, adjacent buildings, etc.? If so, snow drift load must be factored into the design. 2. Do higher roofs from this building or adjacent buildings deposit snow on this building? If so, special design is required for sliding snow. 3. Will plank yield positive camber for adequate drainage? Is roof drainage system shown? 4. Is there roof fill? Additional loads will result. E. Does plank support stairs? 3. TOPPINGS A. Is topping truly composite? Topping separated by a vapor barrier or insulation is not composite. B. If a level floor is required, 1” to 2” additional topping may be required at ends to compensate for camber. 4. EXPANSION JOINTS A. Do contract drawings show expansion joints? If building is greater than 200’ long or has a floor plan shape such as L, Y, or H, expansion joints should be provided. 5. CAMBERS OR DEFLECTIONS A. Camber is inherent in most prestressed products. It is the result of the eccentric prestress force required to carry loads and the span over which the loads must be carried. Camber cannot be designed to an exact number. B. Plank of different spans and loadings will have different camber. Flash patching by others, to level floors will be required. Design Information 2 Strescore Precast/Prestressed Concrete Hollowcore Plank C. Conditions requiring review of camber 1. Avoid heavy masonry wall loads parallel to span. 2. Consult Strescon Limited for all non-uniform loading cases to ensure ultimate strength and deflection criteria can be met. LEVELING OF PLANKS Wood Block. Jack. Floor bellow. • When Strescore planks are uneven, they can be leveled from the underside using jacks. • Place the jacks near the center of the plank span. Gently lift until the bottom of the planks are even. • Grout the joint and leave support under plank until grout is cured. • If top joints are uneven, use Gyp-Crete or equivalent material for feathering and leveling.
