METHODOLOGY
The design sections along the various design strips are checked for strength at service stage
and ultimate stage conditions.
The sections are designed for ultimate stage with post tensioning steel considered as an
internal resisting action.
Additional rebar is provided, if required, in the section to provide adequate strength. The
section-designs are carried out internally by software.
Punching shear calculations are carried as per code provisions of IS:456, considering the
vertical reactions and the moments transferred to the columns.

CONCLUDING REMARKS
RC slabs require more cross sectional dimensions compared to PT slabs.
The amount of concrete required for a floor is more for RC flat slab while
compare to post-tensioned flat slab floor system.
The thickness of RC flat slab is 18.0% higher and cost is 13% more than
the post-tensioned flat slab for 12 x 12 panel.
The quantity of steel per meter in RC Flat slabs are almost 45% higher
than post-tensioned flat slabs for 12 x 12 panel.
