Effect of reinforcement arrangement on the limit strength capacity of concrete slabs

The paper first presents the results of experimental tests of limit strength capacity of a one-way reinforced concrete slab with three different reinforcement arrangements and a two-way reinforced concrete slab with three different support types. A numerical model for the analysis or reinforced concrete and pre-stressed concrete slabs and shells, already developed by the authors, was additionally tested on the obtained experimental test results. Then, the limit strength capacity of one-way and two-way reinforced slabs was tested for different reinforcement arrangements using the aforementioned numerical model. Finally, the main conclusion of the research are presented.
