SLAB ON GRADE REINFORCING DESIGN - PDHonline.com

Post-Tensioned Industrial Floors: The advantages of post-tensioning for industrial floors are: 1. Less concrete, i.e. reduced slab thickness. 2. Reduction or elimination of random cracks. 3. Substantial reduction in joints, i.e. increased spacing of joints. Post-tensioning is an active rather than passive form of reinforcing. In other words, post-
