Major:
For the shown Flat Slab PLAN, it is required to:
1-Calculate all required Concrete dimensions. (I.e. Slabs, Column, Drop Panel or Column head if
necessary)
2-Calculate the ultimate load for the flat slab.

Given that:
Floor cover = 2 𝐾𝑁⁄𝑚2, Live load L.L. = 3 𝐾𝑁⁄𝑚2, Wall Specific Weight 𝛾𝑤 = 15 𝐾𝑁⁄𝑚3
𝛾𝑐 = 25 𝐾𝑁⁄𝑚3 , 𝑓𝑐𝑢 = 30 𝑁⁄𝑚𝑚2 , 𝑓𝑦 = 360 𝑁⁄𝑚𝑚2 ,Building of Category 2, and floor
height = 3m

3-Check Safety Punching Stresses for Corner, Edge and interior columns. If punching is unsafe suggest
a solution and check it.

4-Calculate General Moment about X-axis & Y-axis and distribute it on the Column Strips and Field
Strips of the X and Y Directions considering absence of marginal beams.

5-Using a suitable scale give full detailing showing exact full concrete dimensions and RFT.
