    Model load assumptions for supports of continuous slabs

    Thank you so much for the insight, that thread was very helpful. I'm currently working with joist systems (waffle slabs) supported on all edges. So I guess my next question would be if makes sense to design a continuous slab on its own, for example, using the Equivalent Frame Method; and after...
