ABSTRACT An improved composite, pre-stressed structural member and method of forming such a member of the type provided by upside down forming which includes connecting the steel beams of the composite member to the upper side of a mold so that a parallel deflection of the mold and beams occurs as the mold is filled with concrete. The improvement comprises utilizing a steel beam having a flange at or near the neutral axis with respect to a vertical deflection of the support member. After the composite structure is formed, the flange is away from the neutral axis with respect to a vertical deflection of the composite structure. This flange, therefore, significantly increases the section modu- lus of the composite structure while not adding signifi- cantly to the resistance to bending of the beam during pre-stressing. Stacked and welded I-beams are an example of a support in accordance with this invention.
