(June 18, 2026 @ 6pm ET) 40 Minutes of Competence Study Session: Concrete floor-to-floor heights
This week's Amber Book: 40 Minutes of Competence program is titled, “Concrete floor-to-floor heights”
These study sessions are free and open to all, not just Amber Book subscribers, so join us this Thursday at 6pm ET: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83922907346
You’ll take the first five minutes of class to answer this week's question alone, but if you would like to get a head-start on that, here is the assignment:
An architect is designing a seven-story poured-in-place concrete Type 1-A lab building that is limited in height by local zoning. Structural floor spans are long at 40 feet and there will be a dropped ceiling. Which of the following can help maximize floor-to-ceiling height within the building? Select the best four answers.
- High-strength concrete
- Longer curing time for the concrete
- More horizontal rebar
- Post-tensioned beams
- Shorter distance between control joints
- Wider beams
