The widths of the induced cracks 26 are greater than widths of the shrinkage cracks 24. Non-concrete material 30 is disposed on the bed’s top surface and on each of the bed’s edge surfaces. A second concrete 40 covers the non-concrete material and the bed. The second concrete has stretchable fibers 44 mixed therein. The stretchable fibres may be polymer fibres or metal fibres.
