Flat plates of uniform and non uniform thickness design formulas for deflection, stress and reaction loads

This PDF file contains a chapter of 23 pages with various aspects of flat slabs including four example of flat slab design. The PDF covers the following topics:

A flat slab is a two-way reinforced concrete slab that usually does not have beams and girders, and the loads are transferred directly to the supporting concrete columns.

A flat plate solution using conventional practices would need to be at least 14 inches thick, with very high quantities of post-tensioning and reinforcement.
