Abstract

An analytical model for the calculation of long term deflections of reinforced concrete two way slab, flat slab and flat plate floor systems is proposed in this paper.The proposed analytical model takes into account the significant factors influencing long-term slab deflections. It follows the short term deflection calculation methods with realization of the time dependent effects on the flexural rigidity of slabs.The calculated deflections using the proposed model are compared with several field measured deflections and show good agreement with them.
