Wall - hollow core slab connection
Wall - hollow core slab connection
(OP)
I have to calculate reinforced concrete wall which are supporting hollow core slabs.
I wonder - will that be enough if i consider only vertical force from upper wall and vertical force from hollow core + moment caused by eccentricity? Or will there be some "clamping" moment from the hollow core?

RE: Wall - hollow core slab connection
Somewhere, I've seen recommendations for providing negative moment capacity in the precast in such situations for similar reason. The primary concern is preserving shear capacity in the plank at the support. If someone could help track that recommendation down for us, that might be a suitable moment to design the walls for.
The greatest trick that bond stress ever pulled was convincing the world it didn't exist.
