INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND
The use of post-tensioned concrete floors in buildings has been growing consistently in recent years. The greatest use of this type of construction has been in the USA, and in California it is the primary choice for concrete floors. Posttensioned floors have also been used in Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore and Europe. Their use in the UK is now increasing rapidly.
Typical applications have been:
• Offices
• Car parks
Shopping centres
• Hospitals
• Apartment buildings
• Industrial buildings
• Transfer beams
• Water-resistant roofs
These are illustrated in Figures 1—3.
The Concrete Society has published various Technical Reports on the design of post-tensioned floors('3. Technical Report 43, Post-tensioned concrete floors — Design Handboo/ c4, which was published in 1994, combined the earlier reports and expanded some of the recommendations in line with current practice and the requirements of BS 811 Another important reference is the BCA report on Posttensioned floor construction in inulti-storey buildings(6).
