| Abstract | The primary hospital building of Faculty of Medicine, Thammasat University, Kukhot district, Pathumthani, Thailand is an RC building and serves the primary treatment for local patients. This building has been constructed in early 2011 and finished in 2014. This building is still not yet opened for used due to rather huge deflections of the deck slabs. Such huge deflections can be seen with the naked eye. Undrained rain-waterlog remaining on the roofslap causes corrosion to the reinforced steel as well. As a result, the physicians feel fear of the unsafe building and ask the engineer to perform both nondestructive evaluation (NDE) and load test in order to learn the strength of the problematic deck slabs. The load test results are analyzed both load and rebound portions. The graphs relationship between the loads and deflections and weights against times are plotted and analyzed. Furthermore, the slab deflections are compared with the allowable deflections that allowed by ACI 318/318R as well. |
