ABSTRACT:
A reticulated net for use in reinforced concrete construction includes a first plurality of evenly spaced coplanar rods forming an upper rim and a second plurality of evenly spaced coplanar rods forming a lower rim. The rods of the upper and lower rims are laterally offset and connected by triangular waveform connecting rods. Each connected adjacent pair of upper and lower rods, in conjunction with the associated connecting rod, forms an individual truss member. Pursuant to the disclosed method for reinforced concrete construction, to pour a concrete slab, inexpensive permanent concrete forms are disposed within the upper and lower rims of the net. After completion, lower portions of the net remain exposed to facilitate securement of conventional construction elements such as electrical boxes, suspending ceilings, insulation, lighting fixtures, sprinkling systems, partition wall systems, etc. Important advantages include the stacking of net sections in nested relation for transportation and storage, the obviation of the need for conventional temporary scaffolding and concrete forms in high rise construction, and the ability to modify the net or net portions to accommodate a variety of design requirements.
