Post-tensioning is the most versatile form of pre stressing, a
technique which enables engineers to make the most effective use of
the material properties of concrete, and so to design structural
elements which are strong, slender and efficient. Design in
post-tensioned concrete is not difficult and, if done properly, can
contribute significantly to the economy and the aesthetic qualities
of a building. Post-tensioned floors have found widespread use in
office buildings and car park structures, and are also frequently
employed in warehouses and public buildings. However, in spite of
this, most prestressed concrete texts devote comparatively little
attention to floors, concentrating instead on beam elements. This
book answers the need for a comprehensive treatment of
post-tensioned floor design.
