DESIGN PARAMETERS

SHEET 2 OF 6

STANDARD



1. PRECAST CONCRETE PANELS:

PANELS ARE DESIGNED FOR WIND PRESSURE EQUAL TO 1.34 kPa (28 PSF).

PANELS ARE DESIGNED USING A 127 mm (5 INCH) STRUCTURAL THICKNESS.

PANELS ARE DESIGNED FOR AN ADDITIONAL CONCRETE WEIGHT OF 38 mm (1�INCH)

TO ACCOUNT FOR ARCHITECTURAL SURFACE TREATMENTS.

THE AVERAGE ARCHITECTURAL SURFACE TREATMENT THICKNESS, PER SIDE OF

PANEL, IS PERMITTED TO VARY FROM 0 TO 38 mm (1�INCH) BUT THE TOTAL

AVERAGE ARCHITECTURAL SURFACE TREATMENT THICKNESS, ON BOTH SIDES

OF THE PANEL, MUST NOT BE GREATER THAN 38 mm (1�INCH).

DESIGN CALCULATIONS ARE REQUIRED FOR PANELS WHICH HAVE A TOTAL AVERAGE

ARCHITECTURAL SURFACE TREATMENT GREATER THAN 38 mm (1�INCH).

PANELS ARE DESIGNED AS SIMPLY SUPPORTED BEAMS SPANNING BETWEEN POSTS.

PANELS ARE DESIGNED USING A 305 mm (1’-0") STRIP WIDTH.

PANELS ARE DESIGNED FOR THE FOLLOWING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PCI DESIGN

HANDBOOK, 5th EDITION, 1999:

PANELS ARE DESIGNED FOR STRIPPING FORCES CAUSED BY FORM SUCTION AND

IMPACT WHEN THE PANELS ARE STRIPPED FROM THE FORMS IN ACCORDANCE WITH

SECTION 5.2.3 AND TABLE 5.2.1 USING AN EQUIVALENT STATIC LOAD MULTIPLIER

EQUAL TO 1.50.

PROVIDE A MINIMUM CONCRETE STRENGTH, AT TIME OF STRIPPING, EQUAL

TO 27.6 MPa (4,000 PSI).

PANEL THICKNESS AND REINFORCING IS DESIGNED FOR STRIPPING AND LIFTING AT

TOP OF PANEL USING A TWO-POINT PICK-UP OR FOUR-POINT PICK-UP IN ACCORDANCE

WITH FIGURE 5.2.4.

PANELS ARE DESIGNED FOR TRANSPORTATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION

5.2.11 AND TABLE 5.2.1 USING AN EQUIVALENT STATIC LOAD MULTIPLIER EQUAL

TO 1.50.

THE FLEXURAL TENSILE STRESSES IN THE CONCRETE ARE CALCULATED USING

THE UNCRACKED GROSS SECTION BASED ON THE STRUCTURAL THICKNESS.

THE STRESSES ARE COMPARED AGAINST THE MODULUS OF RUPTURE REDUCED

BY A SAFETY FACTOR OF 1.50 IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 5.2.4.1.

PANELS ARE NOT DESIGNED FOR TRAFFIC IMPACT LOADING.

ARCHITECTURAL SURFACE TREATMENTS

1. THE FOLLOWING ARCHITECTURAL SURFACE TREATMENTS ARE PERMITTED ON THE FACE

OF THE PRECAST CONCRETE PANELS AND ARE TO BE INDICATED ON THE CONTRACT DRAWINGS

SURFACE TREATMENT, ON BOTH SIDES OF THE PANEL, MUST NOT BE GREATER THAN 38 mm

(1�INCH) UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED ON THE CONTRACT DRAWINGS.
