Reduced

Structural Depth

 

     Use of post-tensioning reduces the depth of the floor system by one third or more in comparison to some alternative systems. Reduced structural depth enhances both the appearance and economy of post-tensioned concrete parking structures. In some cases, depth reduction is an essential factor in meeting code height restrictions. For underground parking structures, reduced depth reduces excavation and shoring costs as well as improving parking efficiency due to shorter ramps.
