Assignment#4: Prepare well descriptive note/article on the following title (10-Marks)
Date of assignment: 10th Aug, 2020 Submission date: 31th August, 2020
1) Explain about different approach of the analysis of slab. Further Comment and highlight on
the moment coefficients provided in the IS 456:2000 table 26 and 27. (Hint: write about slab
analysis approach, and further explain how moment coefficients are derived that are kept in
Table 26 and 27 of IS 456:2000, further comment and suggest if any for the analysis of
slab).
2) Explain shortly different approach for limit state of shear design. Further comment and
highlight on shear transfer mechanism and write different shear failure modes. Further
address the phenomenon of shear enhancement as per IS 456:2000. (Hint: explore about the
shear analysis and explain critically as a researcher)
