Abstract:
This thesis presents a method for the design of high elevated flat slab formwork. The method defines the primary stages of the design process, determines the detailed procedure within each stage, and identifies the basic data needed for exercising the design.
The proposed method is aimed at producing design solutions that meet both quality and economy criteria. The method used in this thesis was based on designing a program using Microsoft excels software to test flat slab elements of constructing building selected as a case study and the method procedure was done according to the requirements of the (ACI-347) Code.
Carefully the output data from the program were studied and verified to insure about the safety and economics of the proposed formwork for flat slab
