    Hi all, I am doing a project for college which will include a ground bearing floor which is placed using long strip method. I am looking for book(s) with design examples for dead loads (large plant) and udl imposed loads (10-15m steel sections etc). Most of the books that I have come across have examples for pallet racking and the like and only deal with point loads.
    If anyone has suggestions for books I would be most grateful.
    Thanks, Kev

    Yeah this is pretty much the industry standard for ground bearing floor slabs. Published by the Concrete society.
