Hello!!

I want to define a bidirectional slab of (70+10)*(25+5) cm

This is correct?

What is the parameter Esp =12.1 cm? equivalent thickness??

Thanks!!!

Th - the equivalent thickness used to calculate the plate self-weight.

But, Is the slab well defined?

I want to define a bidirectional slab of (70+10)*(25+5) cm

I ask this question because when I calculate the reinforcement, Robot give me a error

[Artur.Kosakowski]

Try to define "flanges" as a panel and ribs as beams. Then design reinforcement for a panel in ten RC Slab reinforcement module and for beams in RC beam reinforcement one. See:
