About this detail

Built-up concrete slabs and housekeeping pads are constructed over polystyrene insulation and structural concrete slabs. The assembly features varying concrete slab thicknesses and reinforcement as specified in the built-up slab on polystyrene schedule, supported by structural slabs with number 4 reinforcing bars spaced to match slab reinforcement. Control joints are placed as required, and concrete curbs are detailed at perimeters. Dowels are drilled and epoxied with two inches of embedment into existing concrete, with contractors required to verify no post-tensioned tendons or mild reinforcing are damaged. Built-up steps include keyed joints at intersections and specific concrete cover tolerances.
