Experimental and numerical investigation of post-tensioned concrete flat slabs in fire [PDF]
Purpose This paper aims to understand the structural fire performance of two-way post-tensioned flat slabs, particularly their deformations and load-carrying mechanisms in fire, and to explore the behaviour of post-tensioned high-strength self ...

Analytical Study of Punching Shear Capacity in Reinforced Concrete Flat Slabs with Opening Strengthened with Steel Plates and Shear Stud [PDF]
Reinforced concrete flat slabs are widely employed in structural systems. The location of the slab-column connection is the most sensitive part of the flat slab due to the existence of a high flexural anchor and shear force.

Comparative Analysis of RCC Flat Slab with Post-Tensioned Flat Slab
A floor system plays an important role in overall cost and service of the building. Flat plate/slabs are economical since they have no beams and hence can reduce the floor height by 10-15%. In this paper analysis of RC flat slab with drop and post-tensioned flat slab with drop is carried out.
