Comparisons of the prototype structures with structures that use only mild steel reinforcement crossing the beam-column joints as well as structures that use only post-tensioning steel and structures that use combinations of mild steel and post-tensioning steel are also provided. cache/f7623b6150p.txt txt/f7623b6150p.txt
