Hi is a silly quick question about the ubc 97 and post tension slabs.
Do we have to provide a minimum reinforcemnet for a PT slab designed only for crack control? I have a plan check correction asking for this and we ussually don´t provide any,just the tendons. As always thanks a lot

I have always provided some level of mild steel in my PT beams. I'm away from my office and haven't done PT for some time - Isn't there an ACI or PCI requirement for min. mild steel in addition to the tendons?
