8 Requires: All the types in TTypes shall be CopyConstructible (Table 35). All the types in UTypes shall be CopyConstructible (Table 35).
9 Returns: A tuple object constructed by copy constructing its first sizeof...(TTypes) elements from the corresponding elements of t and copy constructing its last sizeof...(UTypes) elements from the corresponding elements of u.template <class... TTypes, class... UTypes> tuple<TTypes..., UTypes...> tuple_cat(tuple<TTypes...>&& t, const tuple<UTypes...>& u);
10 Requires: All the types in TTypes shall be MoveConstructible (Table 34). All the types in UTypes shall be CopyConstructible (Table 35).
11 Returns: A tuple object constructed by move constructing its first sizeof...(TTypes) elements from the corresponding elements of t and copy constructing its last sizeof...(UTypes) elements from the corresponding elements of u.template <class... TTypes, class... UTypes> tuple<TTypes..., UTypes...> tuple_cat(const tuple<TTypes...>& t, tuple<UTypes...>&& u);
12 Requires: All the types in TTypes shall be CopyConstructible (Table 35). All the types in UTypes shall be MoveConstructible (Table 34).

Tuples> tuple<CTypes...> tuple_cat(Tuples&&... tpls);8 Let Ti be the ith type in Tuples, Ui be remove_reference<Ti>::type, and tpi be the ith parameter in the function parameter pack tpls, where all indexing is zero-based in the following paragraphs of this sub-clause [tuple.creation].
9 Requires: For all i, Ui shall be the type cvi tuple<Argsi...>, where cvi is the (possibly empty) ith cv-qualifier-seq, and Argsi is the parameter pack representing the element types in Ui. Let Aik be the kith type in Argsi, then for all Aik the following requirements shall be satisfied: If Ti is deduced as an lvalue reference type, then is_constructible<Aik, cvi Aik&>::value == true, otherwise is_constructible<Aik, cvi Aik&&>::value == true.
10 Remarks: The types in CTypes shall be equal to the ordered sequence of the expanded types Args0..., Args1..., Argsn-1..., where n equals sizeof...(Tuples). Let ei... be the ith ordered sequence of tuple elements of the result tuple object corresponding to the type sequence Argsi.
11 Returns: A tuple object constructed by initializing the kith type element eik in ei... with get<ki>(std::forward<Ti>(tpi)) for each valid ki and each element group ei in order.
