    The document provides minimum thickness requirements for edge beams and flat plates/slabs based on their clear span and load factor. For edge beams, the minimum thickness is 5 inches if the load factor is less than or equal to 2.0, and 3.5 inches if the load factor is greater than 2.0, per ACI 9.5.3.3. A table then lists minimum thickness values for different member types and load factors, ranging from 30 to 36 inches based on the clear span and load factor.
