Abstract:

An assembled floor system is a main step in the industrialization of construction in civil engineering, where the stiffness and anti-crack properties under designed loads and its self-weight are the main concerns. This paper presents a new type of assembled integral composite floor system, which is composed of precast ribbed bottom slab, lightweight infills, cast-in-situ upper slab and joints. Through the couplers for squeezing and splicing of longitudinal bars, shear keys and cast-in-situ joints between the precast panels and cast-in-situ upper part, the whole hollow floor system could not only exhibit satisfactory mechanical performance, but also lower the self-weight and shorten the construction time. To study its flexural behaviors, a full-scale specimen sized 9.2 m × 9.2 m was designed and tested under static area load. With the load increased to the designed loads of Chinese design code GB50010-2010, mechanical performance (i.e., crack distribution, deformation and stress distribution) were analyzed. To further study its load-carrying capacity and working mechanism, an effective finite element model was established in ABAQUS and compared with experimental and simulation results. It was found that the deflection of the floor under the normal service load and the crack width met the needs of normal use, and the finite element model could serve as a reliable method for the load-carrying capacity calculation.
