This guide to precast prestressed concrete (PSC) introduces and applies prin- ciples for the design of PSC slabs, thermal slabs, beam and block flooring and main beams, including cantilevers, and composite and continuous construction. The book covers the innovative use of PSC on several projects in the UK over the past ten years, drawing on the authors' first-hand experience in the design and manufacture of special products. The contents are in line with latest revisions of the Eurocodes and Product Standards. The book is ideal for consulting structural engineers, clients, PSC manufacturers, and advanced under-graduate and post-graduate students, both as a guide and as a textbook.
