The Television Building was built in circa 1961 in the first stage of the development of the RTE site, while in 1980 the building was extended to its current size. A structural assessment has been completed for a portion of the first floor slab which is located in the 1961 phase. The particular portion of slab was chosen as it is subject to the highest level of loading from technical equipment. The assessment has shown that the load carrying capacity of the existing slab does not comply with current codes of practice and in particular is susceptible to a punching shear failure. As a short to medium term measure, it is proposed to provide propping at the relevant column locations.
