Abstract

Beam less floor directly resting on support (column and/ wall) is known as at slab. Because of this, large
bending moment and shear force is developed in the slab, near the column, these stresses produce concrete cracking an d
may lead to the slab failure, hence there is a need to increase the area at top of column to withstand the stresses. This
enlarged truncated portion at the top of column is known as column head/ column capital.
Flat slabs are subjected to gravity and lateral loads. Gravity load analysis of flat slab is carried out by Direct
Design Method (DDM) and Equivalent Frame Method (EFM) as prescribed by different standards, however finite
element analysis and equivalent frame method of at slab is carried out for gravity loads using software SAFE (Slab
Analysis by Finite Element Method and Equivalent Frame Method).
