Comparative Study of Flat Slab and Conventional Slab using Software Aid

Configuration of building is very much important for good seismic performance of the building. The important aspects affecting seismic configuration of a building are overall geometry, structural system and load part. Those parameters are behaving different way in flat slab structure and conventional slab structure. Research on the design of structure has started not only India but in other developed countries also. The building still damages due to some or other reasons due to earthquake. In spite of all the weakness in the structure either code imperfection or error in analysis and design, the structure configuration system has played a vital role in Calamity. In general normal frame construction utilize column, slab and beam .however it may be possible undertake construction without providing beams, in such a case the frame system would consist a slab and column without beam. In our study it has been planned to analyses a building having flat slab and conventional slab under the effect of various loading conditions. The focus of our project is to compare the behavior of building having flat slab and having conventional slab using software aid.
