Predictive Modelling of RC Skew Slabs: Collapse Load
The skew slabs possess a broad range of applications in bridges as well as in buildings because of severe space constraints in the congested urban localities and in locations, when there are some other architectural constraints and geographical obstacles, such as mountainous terrains, etc. The available design guidelines/codes give a set of design moment coefficients for a particular set of the skew angles and the slab aspect ratio only; these are based on the empirical formulae and the related performance studies conducted on such slabs in the past. This paper presents an improved theoretical formulation to predict the ultimate flexural capacity of laterally loaded reinforced concrete (RC) skew slabs. The study reveals the effect of the skew angle and aspect ratio on the moment field induced in the slab. The proposed formulation, therefore helps the analyst to proportionate the skew slab having any set of design constraints. A working example is also presented to demonstrate the validity and efficiency of the simplified approach presented therein.
