PT Slab Pour Strip Design

[dcarr82775]

Anybody know of a reference that gives an example for the design of a pour strip in a PT slab?

Don't know of a reference. Are you loooking for locations required or how to place a pour strip?

We have them located, and I understand the processes involved in the pour strips.

I was looking more for the structural design of the PT and the mild reinforcing at the pour strip. I can go through and figure it all out myself, just hoping to save the brain damage.

VSL and some of the other major PT companies have design manuals...at least they did a few years ago. Worth a call.

Think I remember seeing a example in the vsl document. Think its general to allow 28 or 56 days between pours and located in the central third of the span.
