PARAMETRIC STUDY OF CLOSED GRID FLOOR SYSTEM
Keywords:
Stresses at top surface and bottom surfaces of slab and grid beams.Abstract
Generally for grid slab analysis, it is assumed that although slab is directly supported on beam-grid, bending of beam-grid has no effect on slab. An attempt has been made to consider the effect of same by considering actual behavior. Different parameters like slab depth, depth of grid-beam and spacing of grid-beam are consider for study. Charts are prepared for slab stresses and grid-beam stresses at top surface and bottom surface. The parametric study is done by ABAQUS 6.14 software.
