TENTATIVE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PRESTRESSED CONCRETE FLAT PLATES

THIS REPORT IS PRESENTED AS A GUIDE TO THE DESIGN OF PRESTRESSED CONCRETE FLAT PLATES IN BUILDINGS, POST-TENSIONED WITH EITHER BONDED OR UNBONDED TENDONS. THE REPORT PRESENTS: ANALYSIS AND DESIGN PROCEDURES, PERMISSIBLE STRESSES FOR FLEXURE AND SHEAR, RECOMMENDATIONS ON TENDON DISTRIBUTION AND SPACING, NONPRESTRESSED REINFORCEMENT REQUIREMENTS, SPAN-DEPTH RATIOS FOR DEFLECTION AND CAMBER CONTROL, SEISMIC DESIGN PROVISIONS, FIRE RESISTANCE RATING CRITERIA, AND CONSTRUCTION RECOMMENDATIONS. THE REPORT IS FOR THE GUIDANCE AND INFORMATION OF PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERS WHO MUST ADD PROPER ENGINEERING JUDGMENT TO APPLICATIONS OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS.
