Hand Calculations of a Two Way Post-Tensioned Slab
This web seminar provides step-by-step hand calculations for the design of a typical two-way flat slab that is commonly used for a multitude of building applications ranging from parking, hotel, office, and podium type structures. The topics of slab thickness, equivalent loads, flexural stresses, flexural strength, minimum code requirements and punching shear are addressed. Specific code sections are discussed in conjunction with construction photographs to highlight the design concepts.
