Tower Crane Infill
Tower Crane Infill
(OP)
I have an 11'x11' tower crane opening in a PT slab that i will need to infill.
The existing drawings for the building do not address this condition, and the slab edge is currently not observable.
Before I can verify the condition, my detail will need to assume something, and therefore, Ive assumed that there are form saver connectors along the edge.
Can anyone tell me if I would need to specify a non-shrink mix for this infill?
I will specify "roughen, clean and apply bonding agent of exist surface."
Any other special considerations?

For infills about 6 to 7 feet in width in reinforced concrete slab, we have used normal weight concrete + sawcutting the edges
about 3/4" sloped to form dovetail like shape and used drilled in anchors around the four edges.
