Classification of Slabs :
1. One way slab – a slab supported by two beams or if s/l < 0.5
2. Two way slab – a slab supported by four beams or if s/l 0.5
Flat plates, Figure 16.1(b), are solid concrete slabs of uniform depths
that transfer loads directly to the supporting columns without the aid
of beams or capitals or drop panels. Flat plates can be constructed
quickly because of their simple formwork and reinforcing bar
arrangements.

Another type of floor system is the waffle slab. The floor is constructed by
arranging square fiberglass or metal pans with tapered sides with spaces.
When the concrete is placed over and between the pans and the forms
are removed, the waffle shape is obtained. The intervals or gaps between
the pans form the beam webs. These webs are rather deep and provide
large moment arms for the reinforcing bars. With waffle slabs, the weight
of the concrete is greatly reduced without significantly changing the
moment resistance of the floor system. As in flat plates, shear can be a
problem near columns. Consequently, waffle floors are usually made solid
in those areas to increase shear resistance.

Values of d:
Along short direction: d = t – clear cover – ½ (diameter of bar)
Along long direction: d = t – clear cover –3/2(diameter of bar)
Negative moments at discontinuous edges are assumed equal to 1/3 of the
positive moment in the same direction
Moment in the column strip is 2/3 of the moment in the middle strip in the
same direction
