Trussed Concrete Steel Company
rdfs:comment
The Trussed Concrete Steel Company was founded in 1903 by Julius Kahn, an engineer and inventor. Its headquarters were in Detroit, Michigan, and its steel factory was in Youngstown, Ohio. The long company name changed to a shortened version of "Truscon" for public relations. Julius brought his brother Albert into the company for his architectural skills. The company manufactured prefabricated products of reinforced concrete beams and steel forms for reinforced concrete floors and walls. This allowed floor plans to have longer spans than in conventional construction. The solid-slab reinforced concrete construction produced better shearing stresses. Larger walls could be built with fewer supports which meant larger exterior windows could be used for better sunlight and ventilation.

dbo:abstract
The Trussed Concrete Steel Company was founded in 1903 by Julius Kahn, an engineer and inventor. Its headquarters were in Detroit, Michigan, and its steel factory was in Youngstown, Ohio. The long company name changed to a shortened version of "Truscon" for public relations. Julius brought his brother Albert into the company for his architectural skills. The company manufactured prefabricated products of reinforced concrete beams and steel forms for reinforced concrete floors and walls. This allowed floor plans to have longer spans than in conventional construction. The solid-slab reinforced concrete construction produced better shearing stresses. Larger walls could be built with fewer supports which meant larger exterior windows could be used for better sunlight and ventilation. Kahn invented and patented a unique reinforcement system technology, the Kahn system, that was stronger, more economical, and lighter than the then existing systems for building construction. It used tab flanges that were permanently attached on steel beams that distributed the tension for improved strength in concrete. Packard Automotive Plant in Detroit became the first to have that type of factory built in the United States using his scientific method of reinforced concrete. The company capitalized on its proprietary system for twenty years and was successful worldwide. The prefabricated reinforced concrete products became the dominant product exported to Europe, Asia, Central America and South America between World Wars I and II competing against foreign products of similar nature.
