Slab Finite-Element Design Around a Circular Opening

Finite-element slab design showing enveloped bottom-reinforcement intensity around a circular opening near a slab corner.

Scope of work

  • Slab meshed into finite elements with the opening modelled
  • Enveloped bottom-reinforcement intensity contours (in²/ft), Direction 1
  • Identification of reinforcement concentration at the opening edge for detailing
