Análise de uma laje maciça utilizando-se o método das tabelas e o método de analogia de grelha equivalente

Abstract

This work aims to analyze a slab, comparing the results obtained between two calculations methods: Table’s Method and Equivalent Grillage Analogy Method. The first method is usually taught in the classroom in Civil Engineering courses, as it is a simple method for the calculation of slab and ribbed slabs. The second is normally used in structural analysis software for the analysis of these structures. The comparation of the results of these two calculations methods becomes important to analyze the use of each method at the time of the structural calculation of the slab. To carry out this comparation, relevant studies and concepts were approached and the structural analysis were performed through the two methods. The software SAP2000 V12 was used for the calculation and modeling of some structural models of the equivalent grillage. Then, comparing the results obtained by the two methods, it was possible to understand the differences in the use of each method and to base the designer’s choice
