Flat Slab
This system is commonly used for high-rise residential construction where the span is usually 7 to 8 meters. The most attractive feature of this floor system is its flush soffit which requires simple formwork and greatly simplifies construction. The depth of a flat plate is often dictated by shear requirements.
