unique residential structural systems
i have a client that is trying to do cost effective housing for young proffesional people trying to break into homeownership. basically they are trying to develop a low cost condo product that first time home owners can afford. we have done a few with post tensioned slabs which are pretty straight forward, most buildings are exceeding a 15 floors so light framed construction is out.
does anyone out there world wide seen any more cost effective floor framing system for high rise condo projects
any input would be appreciated no matter how out there it may be
regards,

have you looked at deep profile decking with post tensioning? i believe that structural systems does it in australia and the uk, dont know about the us though.
i have not i have heard of the deep profile deck system but not with pt seems interesting, any idea on links to prospective sites with info, great idea thanks
it always seems that the uk has been doing stuff for years ahead of the us
