Abstract:
A method is disclosed for forming reinforced concrete structural panels wherein one or more preformed elongated structural ribs are inverted and placed horizontally into a form for casting a generally flat concrete structural slab. The structural ribs have joiners projecting downward into the form and the concrete slab which is cast in the form so that the joiners connect the reinforced ribs with the slab. In one embodiment of the invention a plurality of reinforced elongated ribs are disposed parallel to one another in the form and additional reinforcing members placed in the form perpendicular to the ends of the ribs to form a box-like structure. A plurality of these reinforced structural panels can be connected together by stringers run through the end members.
