Post Dead Load for Concrete slab

[BrianApex]

In RisaFloor (and im sure other software); when entering loads for the slab it has PreDL; Post DL; LL; etc. I know the post DL is the deadload after it is cured. in the software it labels it as 10psf. what is the 10psf?

Its difficult to understand your question. Are you asking what are some examples of dead load that are applied to post composite roofs and floors?

One example would be ceiling or flooring that is applied once the structure is complete and the composite floors are composite.

I would research RISA floor's naming convention for these uniform area loads so you are certain you understand them and how to use them within the program.

I think 10psf is just the default value in that list of example area loads. You can change it to whatever value is appropriate for your structure.
