| » How do I support my Spancrete hollow core plank?
Spancrete does not design the supporting structures and assumes no responsibility for their structural integrity. Walls must be concrete masonry units (CMU)/block or poured-in-place concrete. All CMU walls require a continuous bond beam (filled top course) for mounting the Spancrete® hollow core plank. Spancrete hollow core plank requires a 4-inch minimum bearing area on each end for both CMU and concrete. Steel beams are also often used to support Spancrete hollow core plank. Steel surfaces require a minimum of 3-inches of bearing area.
