         9 . The reinforcement structure of  claim 8 , wherein at least one cantilever beam is attached to perpendicular the at least one plate section, the vertical column, and a side between each corner of the triangular circumferential beam to enable a balcony or a canopy on the exterior of a building structure. 
     
     
         10 . The reinforcement structure of  claim 8 , further comprising:
 an eye attached to a least one plate section to enable the lifting by a hook and placing of the reinforcement structure adjacent to another structural member or another adjacent triangular circumferential beam, wherein the eye is attachable to the least one plate section prior to pouring and setting of concrete or post pouring and setting of concrete.   
     
     
         11 . The reinforcement structure of  claim 1 , wherein the triangular circumferential beam (B 2  sides, B 1  hypotenuse) is at least one of a right triangle, an isosceles right triangle, 30 degrees (°)-60°-90° triangle, oblique triangle, or irregular triangular shape. 
     
     
         12 . A method of manufacturing a reinforcement structure for forming a concrete slab, the method comprising:
 constructing a triangular circumferential beam;   attaching the plurality of central ribs between two sides of the three sides of the triangular circumferential beam; and   tensionally attaching a plurality of reinforcing bars between two corners of the triangular circumferential beam.   
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 12 , further comprising:
 housing the plurality of reinforcing bars with a plurality of conduits;   attaching a bottom reinforcement mesh into a mould,   placing the reinforcement structure into the mould, wherein the mould includes a reinforcement cage that surrounds and attaches to at least the triangular circumferential beam and the plurality of reinforcing bars;   attaching a top reinforcement mesh on top of the reinforcement cage;   pouring concrete into the mould and allowing the setting of the concrete; and   applying a tensile force to the plurality of reinforcing bars between two corners of the triangular circumferential beam responsive to the setting forms the concrete slab as a compressed concrete slab, wherein the applying is enabled by the housing.
