Abstract
The question of the percentage of reinforcement m flat slabs is important economically as well as theoretically. It is, moreover, a question respecting which there seems to be some misconception as to the principles which should be applied. Shall the concrete and steel be balanced as perfectly as possible; or, if not, which shall be made the stronger The uninformed have usually insisted on over reinforcement, so that the concrete would be the weaker. If it is possible to determine the actual stresses in the steel with precision, there is no doubt that slabs should be designed so that the steel will give way first
