Abstract

The subjects of prestressed and nonprestressed reinforced-concrete roof-and floor-framing systems are inseparable because identical concrete sections sometimes are used with each mode of reinforcing, and because some framing schemes incorporate elements composed of each type of construction. For this reason, each will be considered in this discussion although the emphasis will be placed upon members with prestressed reinforcement. Nonprestressed reinforced-concrete elements will be discussed only when they are used in lieu of or in combination with prestressed elements.
