ETABS Story data and slab thickness

ETABS Story data and slab thickness

ETABS Story data and slab thickness

(OP)
Hello all,
I would like to know, if the slab thickness is included in the story height or we need to consider the thickness into the story height?
e.g. If the story height is 10 feet, and slab thickness is 6 in. and I need a clear height of 9.5 feet. Should I write 10 feet or 9.5 feet in story height data?

TIA

RE: ETABS Story data and slab thickness

Storey Heights are measured slab surface to slab surface.

Usually you would use the Storey RL's from an Architectural Elevation.
