Does anyone know how to get CADD details for PT Slab-to-Shear Wall Joint Details? Please help.
This is our first time to use shear walls along with post-tensioned slab. We have a 200'x60' scissor ramp parking garage. The elevated slabs are all post-tensioned. The shear walls are located at the center as a "I" shape. The post-tensioned strands are all stressed at perimeter edges.
We need details for strand anchors in shear walls. What kind of joints are better for this kind of applications? Fix joints? slide joints? What details are they?
Since the slab is inclined, when contractors pour the concrete shear wall, shall the vertical pour joints to be flat or inclined? If it is flat, how do them set the anchors and strands? I assume that there will be pour joint below and above the slab. How to keep the contineounity throughtout the shear wall also prevent restrain and cracks?
Thank you very much.
