The alternate methods discussed in this letter are intended to provide the developer and the designer information to make an informed decision as to use of the differing types of "reinforcement" within concrete slabs -on -grade. The decision as to which method to use, where the underlying subgrade is non -expansive, as is the case, we leave to the designer and the developer to make an informed decision. Additional discussion is provided . at the end of this letter to discuss or clarify recommendations provided in the referenced geotechnical engineering. report with regards to concrete slab -on -grade thickness, compressive strength of -concrete slabs - on -grade and foundations, and reinforcement of foundations. Alternative methods of controlling cracking in concrete slabs -on -grade include: • Welded wire mesh • Fiber reinforcement • Control joints • Quality control during placement and curing These are discussed below: Welded Wire Mesh: Welded -Arire mesh (typically 6" x 6"/#10 x 010) can be used to help control cracking by keeping the concrete bound together during shrinkage and temperature changes. However, to be effective it must be placed near the slab mid height. Unfortunately, the welded wire mesh typically ends up at the bottom of the slab because of improper lifting and-workcrs trodding down. the mesh during placement. While structurally the cross sectional area of steel is sufficient to control cracking, we are skeptical of its actual in -place effectiveness unless diligent care is exercised during concrete placement. r� 07/09/2007 12:.24 7603457315 PAGE 03/08.. June 14, 2007 -2- File No.: 07230-01 07-06-763 Fiber Reinforcement: Fiber reinforced (Fibermesh) concrete can also be used to help control cracking, when used with control -joints as recommended by the American Concrete Institute's (ACI) Manual of Concrete Practice 224.3. Fibermesh 650 has been submitted as an additive to the concrete mixture to aid in the reinforcing of the building slabs, and as an alternative to the specified #3 reinforcing steel. Data provided by Propcx Concrete Systems recommends this application for use in slab -on -grade conditions. Fibermesh concrete, however, does not offer any structural tensile strength to the concrete. Both welded wire mesh and rebar. provide tensile strengtb to the concrete. Fibermesh allows the concrete to withstand minor changes in the subgrade from possible differential settlement and reduces the quantity of drying shrinkage cracking. If Fibermesh is to be used on. this project, the structural engineer should review the requirement of the reinforcement within the slabs -on -grade, and that the fiber type and quantity will meet or exceed the performance of welded wire mesh or rebars placed within the concrete slabs -on -grade. Control Joints: Control joints, as discussed above, are essential to controlling cracking. It should be realized that concrete is a rigid material, and when applied as a relatively thin diaphragm, as is a concrete slab -on -grade, the potential for cracking is very high. Organizations such as ACI, the International Code Counsel (ICC), the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), and Concrete International have provided guidelines through the years that have becomes standards in many areas. Their recommendations include adequate placement of control joints, reinforcement at re-entrant corners, adequate concrete thickness, proper curing of the concrete (highly effected by temperature, wind; and humidity), and mix designs. Although the above -mentioned items will improve the quality of the final concrete product, thin concrete slabs -on -grade will eventually crack. Controlling the crack patterns should be one of the main objectives when designing concrete slabs -on -grade. The spacing of these joints is in part determined by the thickness of the concrete slab, i.e. the thicker the slab the farther the control. joints may be placed. Quality Control: Quality control program through trial batch mix designs, batch plant inspection, and on -site special inspection are effective in verifying if the concrete placed is of good quality and workmanship. Testing the concrete for compressive strength and slump, taking ambient air and concrete temperature, wind and humidity measurements provides information on the quality of the concrete as delivered and curing conditions. Typically, for residential construction where the concrete slabs -on -grade are less than 4 inches, using 2500 psi concrete, the slabs are generally considered non-stmctural elements and these quality control programs are not required and consequently are not conducted. Yet it is often in residential construction that the owner is dissatisfied with cracks in the concrete. The lowest level of inspection is incongruently associated with the highest level of legal exposure. Given that developers are held strictly liable for their work product, an adequate quality control program seems prudent and worth the financial consideration. In closing, the geotechnical engineering consultant provides recommendations for site grading and foundation design criteria that become imperative for the developer and designer to follow. Our grading recommendations are referencedwith the project specifications, and plans and are a requirement by the governing building official to be implemented.
