The purpose of this Report is to provide information and current best practice on the design and construction of reinforced concrete flat slabs in accordance with Eurocode 2 (BS EN 1992) and the National Structural Concrete Specification.
The Report is intended for use by designers (both of the permanent and temporary works) who already have a basic understanding of structural behaviour (e.g. Reinforcedandprestressed concrete by Kong and Evand3)).
Flat slabs design is appropriate for most floor situations and is also suitable for irregular column layouts, curved floor shapes, ramps, etc. The benefits of choosing flat slabs include the following:
0 A minimum depth solution leads to least cladding and has advantages in planning
0 Speed of construction
0 Flexibility in the plan layout, both in terms of the shape and column layout
CI Flat soffit, allowing clean finishes or freedom of layout of services
0 The use of economic large spans (see Section 2.3)
0 Scope for cutting holes, alterations and repairs (see Section 4.7.4)
0 Scope for much repetition
a Reduction in the need for drop beams (and up-stand beams)
0 Scope and space for the use of flying forms
0 Good for sound attenuation.

The flexibility of flat slab construction can lead to high economy and yet allow the architect great freedom of form.
The scope of this Report includes flat slabs with orthogonal and irregular layouts of columns, plain soffits, waffle slabs, voided slabs and slabs with edge beams. It should be noted that solid flat slabs with a flat soffit are the most popular. This Report does not cover the design of prestressed post-tensioned slabs. For such slabs, reference should be
made to the Concrete Society Technical Report No. 43(4).
