Análise teórica e experimental de lajes nervuradas bidirecionais.

Abstract

This work is to approach waffle slabs, it was developed a theoretical and experimental analysis of waffle slabs. It was compared results obtained by performing of a specimen experiment in real scale, with the results obtained by calculation models. After tests, it is concluded that the calculation process used exaggerates the dimensioning, being rather conservative in favor of security, that indicates the need for more efficient methods calculations such as Finite Element Method, in order to obtain values closer to reality and economical structures.
