Abstract
The present prefabricated structural element is especially adapted for the formation of balconies or other cantilevered structures. To this end a floor slab section or main section is joined to a balcony or cantilevered section by reinforcing steel elements which are connected to or in both sections and which bridge a gap between the sections. The gap width between the sections is preferably narrower than the top width of a supporting member, such as a wall or header, so that the gap may be filled with poured-in-place concrete once the element is properly placed in the desired position on top of the header or other supporting structure.
