Abstract

Flat slab is a reinforced concrete slab supported by columns with, or without drop. The columns may be with, or without column heads. Flat slab is a universal structural component widely used in construction nowadays. Flat slab requires minimum depth as compared to other slab, Hence, saving in material cost, speedy construction and it allows flexible column grids. MATLAB programming helps in high-performance numerical computation and perceptions. It provides an interactive environment with hundreds of built-in functions for technical computation, graphics, and animation. Best of all, it also provides easy extensibility with its own high-level programming language. The aim of this study is to analyze the flat slab in India followed by a review of design methods for flat slab structures design with MATLAB programming for the easy application for the design of flat slab and creating MATLAB coding for the flat slab.
