For continuous beam
lapping
For rectangular slabs that supported in 4-sides, the following method can be used:
• 0ne-way slab (Ly/Lx > 2.0)
where n = uniform distributed
Beam load on slab (kN/m2)
Equivalent UDL
Beam
Or: - use the shear values at the beam support (determined using Table 3.15 of
BS8110) (this method provides more accurate assumption on the distribution
loading from slab because factors on the continuity of slabs and support types have
been considered in the provision clause).
where n = load on slab (kN/m2); vx & vy = shear coefficient from table 3.15 BS8110
