About this detail

Electrical conduits are embedded within a topping slab placed over a structural timber floor slab. Conduits are limited to three-quarters of an inch in diameter with a maximum one-inch outer diameter unless otherwise approved by the engineer. Welded wire reinforcement is placed over the conduit where applicable, maintaining a one-inch minimum clear cover from the bottom and a three-quarter-inch minimum clear cover from the top. A six-inch minimum spacing is maintained between conduit groups, and conduits are chaired off the base to ensure required clearances. Reinforcement takes precedence over conduit placement, and conduits are strictly prohibited within four feet of column faces without prior structural engineer approval.
