Primary Structure
Floor system
-material: composite structural
steel/concrete
- type: beams, composite metal
deck/concrete floor
- pattern: radial beams, edge
beams and one-way floor slab
- beam clear span 14 m
- floor slab span 2.2 - 3.25m
Core
- material reinforced concrete
Note:
- If the floor plan is rectangular,
ribbed slab system could have
been adopted.

Full load was transferred east-west by the planks and then was
transferred north-south by the beams;
M = (wl1 )
The same is true for a two-way slab or any other floor system.

Method of Analysis
Method of Analysis
(1) Elastic Analysis
Concrete slab may be treated as an elastic
plate. Use Timoshenkos method of analyzing
the structure. Finite element analysis
Method of Analysis
(3) Nonlinear analysis
Simulates the true load-deformation characteristics
of a reinforced concrete slab with finite-element
method takes into consideration of nonlinearities of
the stress-strain relationship of the individual
members.

Example
A flat plate floor system with
panels 7.2m by 6m is supported
on 500mm square columns.
Determine the minimum slab
thickness required for the interior
and corner panels. Use fcu = 30
MPa and fy = 460 MPa.

The floor system consists of solid
slabs and beams in two directions
supported on 500mm square
columns. Determine the minimum
slab thickness required for an
interior panel. Use fcu = 30 MPa and
fy = 460 MPa.
