i dont wish to anger any structural engineers, but the majority would admit they are not specialist pre-stressed floor beam engineers (some are), they wont spend time calculating this product but use available technical information such as load span tables, these are actually conservative with regards to achievable spans. for example increased spans can be achieve when in design, this could be the difference between specified a 225mm when a 150mm will work, quite a cost saving IMO.

Bad idea to go in excess of the specified spans as it doesn't keep the floor feeling "solid"
