Summary

Post-tensioning is the most versatile form of pre-stressing. Post-tensioned floors have found widespread use but 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.
