Annex A12.3.

4 Result of the calculation of the bending and torsional moments in

a simply supported slab with an opening, by means of the finite
element method (linear elastic analysis in uncracked situation)

Purpose of this annex: to show the necessity of supporting strips at the edges of the
opening.
