We 3 Flat Slabs V8B 17 Sep 07.doc 17-Sep-07 Page 3 of 20

The document calculates design moments in a bay of a flat slab with spans of 8.5m and 4m. It determines the hogging moment at the support as 952.8 kNm and sagging moment in the bay as 842.7 kNm. It then apportions these moments between the column strip, which is 3m wide, and the middle strip, also 3m wide. The column strip takes 70% of the hogging moment and 50% of the sagging moment, while the middle strip takes the remaining 30% and 50% respectively.
