Structural question
(OP)
Dear all,
i just want to know is it possible to perform a design two way slab using flat plate which has two span only.i attached a file i can provide beam only to the stair portion but i cannot provide beam in other portion because of architectural requirements. please consider RCC Slab.
Thank you.

Engr. Faisal

RE: Structural question
why will i go for thumbs? as we know for the flat plate
thickness of interior span = lc/33 and for
exterior span = lc/30 where lc = clear span.
by this formula we get 6" slab thickness which will be economical for this project. do you have any other reasons not to provide 6".
For all
is flat plate really can resist in dynamic load analysis?
or there is a problem? explain.

Regarding your last Q,
(Is flat Plate really can resist in dynamic load analysis?)Is not clear.
I think Flat Plate can resist any type of loads as the other types of slab can do; the difference is only in vibration phenomena/problems.
