Hollowcore
Introduction
Hollowcore floor planks are precast
concrete elements with continuous
longitudinal voids providing
an efficient lightweight section.
When grouted, the effective shear key between adjacent Hollowcore
planks ensures that the individual planks behave similarly
to a monolithic slab. Hollowcore planks may be used to produce
a diaphragm to resist horizontal forces, either with or without
a structural topping. Hollowcore planks, supported on masonry
or steel can be used in domestic, commercial and industrial
applications.
