2. R.C.C. SLABS

3. CLASSIFICATION OF SLABS Slabs are classified based on many aspects Based on shape : Square, rectangular, circular and polygonal in shape. Based on type of support : Slab supported on walls, Slab supported on beams, Slab supported on columns (Flat slabs). Based on support or boundary condition: Simply supported, Cantilever slab, Overhanging slab, Fixed or Continuous slab. Based on use : Roof slab, Floor slab, Foundation slab, Water tank slab. Based on cross section or sectional configuration : Ribbed slab /Grid slab, Solid slab, Filler slab, Folded plate Based on spanning directions : One way slab – Spanning in one direction Two way slab - Spanning in two direction

4. One- way slab is used with short span range from 1.80-3.60 m. One way slab bends only in one direction.

5. Two-way slab is used with long span ( 4.5-12 m. ) and heavy loads or when high lateral force resistance is required
