Comparative Study of Flat Slab and Conventional Slab Structure using Software

In today's construction industry, the use of flat slab is quite common which enhances the weight reduction, speed up construction, and economical. Similarly, from the beginning conventional slab has got place in providing features like more stiffness, higher load carrying capacity, safe and economical also. As the advancement era began practice of flat slab becomes quite common. In the present dissertation work a G + 7 commercial multi-storeyed building having flat slab and conventional slab has been analyzed for various. In the present work the storey shear of flat slab, the axial forces on flats slab building, the difference in storey displacement of flat and conventional building are approximately calculated by using software. The main objective of the present work is to study the behavior of flat slab structure and conventional slab structure for a commercial building in seismic zones (III) and compare the behavior of the building for the parameters like storey displacement, shear force, storey drift, base shear, axial force, bending moment and axial load on the footing under varying load conditions.
