A monolithic slab is a single piece of concrete that is cast reinforced with steel and typically used for floors, roofs and ground slabs. The design of a monolithic slab should include the reinforcement size, spacing and orientation, as well as the correct concrete mix design.
The proportions of cement, water, sand, and aggregate need to be balanced to provide adequate strength and durability, while also allowing the slab to flex and deflect under anticipated loads. The thickness of the slab can be determined by calculating the volume of concrete required to transfer the anticipated loading. Additionally, consideration needs to be given to curing conditions and the need for cracking control measures.
