Abstract: A multiple level building structure utilizing a first set of precast reinforced concrete modules having integral supporting legs separated by a second set of precast or in situ cast reinforced concrete modules, each of the second set of modules being supported along opposite side margins by members of the first set of modules; the structure also including, if desired, a third set of modules of greater width than the first or second set of modules, the modules having tendon guideways therein and being secured together by removable post tensioning tendons strung through the guideways.

Abstract: A building construction utilizing precast concrete building units which are positioned side-by-side and end-to-end as well as stacked to form a multistory structure; the units being secured together by tendons freely threaded through horizontal and vertical chases provided in the building units, placed under tension and anchored at their extremities. The building units may also include precast beams containing longitudinal catenary tendons anchored at the end extremities of each building unit, the units being bolted in end-to-end relation.
