Deliver Serviceable Concrete Slabs-on-Ground
The PD3 Basket® assembly used at the saw-cut contraction joints
in a "strategic reinforcement" design helps you reliably deliver a serviceable slab
in a competitive environment. Concrete slabs-on-ground must be able to withstand the repetitous, concentrated loads and abrasion of wheeled traffic at the weakest point - the joints.
The PD3 Basket® assembly helps you:
- Optimize the amount of steel in a project
- Collect retainage
- Reduce call backs
- Save labor
- Deliver serviceable slabs-on-ground
- Shorten construction schedules
Design Advantages
- Unique tapered plate allows the slab to move horizontally in
all directions without restraint
- Limits differential deflection across joints
to minimize joint spalling
- Provides immediate vertical load transfer with the
thinly and evenly factory applied de-bonding agent
- Provides more steel at the
joint where the bearing, shear and flexural stress are the highest
- Accommodates
up to four inches of misalignment during construction
Installation Advantages
- Fully welded assemblies, offering stable dowel support during installation
- Requires fewer man hours for installation than historical
methods
- Easy to handle - can be carried and installed by one person during concrete
placement
- Allows for easy subgrade leveling at any point prior to concrete placement to prevent rutting,
restraint and cracking
- Construction tolerances allow for misalignment of the saw-cut over the middle of the basket by two inches either way without
causing restraint in the panels
- Can be located up to within six inches of the joint intersection
- Bundled and shipped on skids for easy shipping and handling on the jobsite
- Custom and stock baskets available through national distribution network
