We are working on a project where we need to analyze a roof of a building for an additional load to be installed. The Only designation we have in the drawings that it is Spancrete S 8210. the building was built in the early 70's. Could not find any helpful information online. Nothing on Spancrete website. Does anyone can help with analysis of this slab? Thank you. The photo of the roof plan is included.

 
S probably means "standard"--Spancrete has standard and ultralight planks. The 8 almost certainly means it is an 8" thick plank. The 2 might mean the prestressing strands are 1/8" diameter (2/16"). The 10 might mean there are 10 prestressing strands in a plank.

Call Spancrete to verify.

I did call Spancrete, so far no one returned my call. I found a chart that explains the designation, just like DaveAtkins mentioned. Looking for more loading tables.
