Abstract
Lower-bound solutions (prediction equations) to the collapse of rectangular, orthotropically-reinforced, concrete slabs under uniform load are (developed for) given for: (1) slab continuous on the shorter sides and simply supported on the longer sides; and (2) slab continuous on all sides. The lower-bound collapse loads calculated for a range of coefficients of orthotropy and ratio of width to length of slab, agree closely with the upper-bound values derived from the yield line theory. Simple equations are given for moment fields, collapse loads, and edge-beam forces which are useful in the design of such slabs.
