H. Lounsbury, Contractor FLAT SLAB FLOORS 1. The superiority of flat slab floors supported directly on columns,over other forms of construction when looked at from the stand-point of lower cost, better lighting, greater neatness of appearance,and increased safety and rapidity of construction, is so general!}^, orrather so universally conceded as to render any reliable informationrelative to the scientific computation of stresses in this type of con-struction of great interest. Heidenreich, in his Engineers PocketBook on Reinforced Concrete, page 89, classifies this type as floorswithout beams and girders—^Mushroom System. Since ^mushroom, as applied to concrete, is an arbitrary orfanciful term, and indeed, almost a contradictory one, a word ofexplanation as to its origin may be of interest. The term wasoriginated by C. A. P. Turner, of Minneapolis, and applied to hisflat plate constr
