Analysis of Flat Slab
R.S.More, V. S. Sawant
Abstract: A popular form of concrete building construction uses a flat concrete slab (without beams) as the floor system. Flat slabs analysis and design of flat slabs are still the active areas of research and there is still no general agreement on the best design procedure. The present day Indian Standard Codes of Practice outline design procedures only for slabs with regular geometry and layout. But in recent times, due to space crunch, height limitations and other factors, deviations from a regular geometry and regular layout are becoming quite common. Also behavior and response of flat slabs during earthquake is a big question. This paper gives the guidelines for analysis of flat slab.
