This publication presents guidelines for the thickness design of concrete floors on grade subject to loadings that may occur in factories and warehouses. Existing design information covers only a limited range of slab thicknesses and load magnitudes and configurations. The design procedures presented are also applicable to the design of slabs for outdoor storage and material handling areas.
