POSSIBLE DISPLACEMENTS AND DEFORMATIONS OF THE FLOOR SLAB AND CALCULATION OF REINFORCEMENT IN THE STADICON SOFTWARE PACKAGE

Abstract

This paper analyzes the possible vertical displacements of the floor slab in the StaDiCon program. This software provides for highly accurate and reliable calculations, which is essential for the design of modern building structures. During the study, slab reinforcement was calculated with the selection of the necessary reinforcing elements, which effectively withstand the specified loads, including both static and dynamic effects. The paper focuses on the methods of determining the necessary reinforcement parameters, including the choice of the reinforcement type and diameter, as well as the calculation of the distances between rods. The study resulted in diagrams illustrating the results of calculating the vertical displacements of the floor slab, which allows visualizing the behavior of the structure under the influence of external factors. It also presents data on the required cross-sectional area of additional reinforcement, given the specified main reinforcement. These calculations are essential for identifying structural weaknesses and optimize the location and dimensions of load-bearing elements. The obtained results can be used for the further design and analysis of other structural elements of buildings and structures, such as beams and columns. Thus, the work both contributes to a deeper understanding of the behavior of floor slabs under the influence of loads, and provides practical recommendations for civil engineers seeking to improve the reliability and durability of building structures. Ultimately, the results of this study can serve as a basis for the development of more effective design and construction methods, which is important in modern construction requiring a high degree of safety and resistance to external influences.
