Effects of membrane action on the ultimate strength of reinforced concrete slabs.
This thesis describes an investigation of the effects of membrane action on reinforced concrete slabs, particularly the implications of allowing for compressive membrane action in the design of slab and beam floors. An examination of the minimum reinforcement requirements of a rectangular slab revea...
