What is AS 3600 Design Principles:
Post Tensioned slabs is the most commonly used solution for slabs all around Australia, especially for big developments, it is considered as the first option since it offers many benefits from bigger spans to less concrete and faster construction speed. It involves placing empty ducts and pushing strands inside these ducts which will be later stressed once the concrete has reached enough strength.
Learning Outcomes:
- Gain fundamental knowledge and code requirements when designing a post tensioned slab.

I did not have any knowledge of PT system before, but this course helped me to get a useful and comprehensive knowledge of it. The course was well presented by variety of practical examples and good contents. I really liked the course and recommend to the structural engineers who want to learn or improve and broaden their knowledge of PT system.

The course is presented in a very simple and informative manner and was a very good refresher course for me in terms of PT design. It would be good to get Aaron's responses to the challenge questions put forward throughout the course just to be able to know how our answers compares with his as he has got good experience in this field.
