Popis: This paper proposes new coefficients for design bending moments for interior reinforced concrete flat plates. These design coefficients are safe for strength and serviceability and are calculated using Hillerborg’s advanced strip method design approach and finite-element method. The Hillerborg-Wood-Armer rules were used to convert field moments to design moments. The paper also introduced graphs. These can be used to determine the length of the top reinforcement in an interior flat plate. The findings are the only available solution for designing flat plates with aspect ratios higher than 2.0.
