    A one-way slab is supported along its long edges but not its short edges. When a uniform load is applied, the slab's surface deforms into a cylindrical shape with curvature and bending moments the same in all strips spanning the short direction between supports, while there is no curvature or bending moment in strips parallel to the long supported edges.

    DESIGN OF ONE-WAY SLABS

    The structural action of a one-way slab may be visualized in terms of the deformed shape of the loaded surface. Figure 1 shows a rectangular slab, simply supported along its two opposite long edges and free of any support along the two opposite short edges. If a uniformly distributed load is applied to the surface, the deflected shape will be as shown by the solid lines. Curvatures, and consequently bending moments, are the same in all strips s spanning in the short direction between supported edges, whereas there is no curvature, hence no bending moment, in the long strips l parallel to the supported edges. The surface is cylindrical.
