    Remedy for slab deflection
    We have PT slab, constructed after jumpform work i.e. couplers and pull out bars provision were first left into core walls at the time of wall casting and later slab was casted with necessary PT reo. Span about 6.4m in short direction and 12m in long direction. Could you please explain the reasons for its defections and possible solutions. Slab has already deflected by 10mm in one years time with out actual finishes and LL on it.
