Ground bearing concrete floors, industrial concrete hardstandings and concrete highway pavements have not, in the past, been perceived as a single type of structural element and their construction has taken place independently of each other. This is in spite of their obvious commonality in the areas of design, materials, geotechnical appreciation and construction.Ground Bearing Concrete Slabs has been specifically written to break down the ‘walls’ that have arisen between these three areas and focus on the issues that are common to them all.
