I was looking at the best way to anchor a Hollowcore Precast concrete slab to a bond beam. my outer wall is composed of 4" face brick with 1/2" air space, then 8" CMU. I have a 10" Hollowcore Precast Concrete Slab for the roof slab which will be bearing on top of a 8" Bond Beam which runs the top course around the building. Is there a better way to anchor it other than just running a dowel from the bond beam into the slab, and for construction-detailing purposes, how is that done to anchor it using dowels? Do they just specify and drill where the dowels will be then grout solid or? Any knowledge is appreciated.
