Great video sir, why you used 'simple slab' equations for bending moment in outer support and end span instead of 'continuous slab' equations from table?
I'm reality, continuous slabs are slab panels connected together and supported side by side by beams. The slabs and beams are casted together ( monolithic construction)
@@ngbosolomon6070 the design of slab panels as simply supported or continuous is an approach. If you are doing hand calculations, then keep it simple by designing each panel as simply supported, as continuous design contains more rigorous calculations. Most computer analysis use the continuous design approach because this type of design is more economical. Simply supported design is a conservative approach.
Why some engineers design some panels as simply supported and some as continuous in the same building is a matter of convinience. For instance in that arrangement of 5 panels, the designer may feel it would be easier if he designed 4 panels at once as continuous and then the remaining panel as simply supported.

Thank you for this sir. Hope to see more of your videos.
amazing content! You just got a subscriber
Please do a video of how to design beams manually
Great tutorial ❣️.
Sir please explain better to what continuous slap is in reality.

@@GodwinSholaconciseinfo ok, but why are some panels bn designed separately in the same building instead of designing the whole thing as continuous?

How do you get the number of reinforcement that is 65
Divide the span of the slab panel by the distance between reinforcing rods
Great tutorial. Sir which textbook did you use, and do you mind sharing the link?
