    Calculating Concrete slab bending stress

    Thanks for the quick reply! I realize I was not very clear though... The force is applied parallel to the floor (or in the x/y-direction, which creates a moment, which then leads to the bending stress. For example, a robot on a 1 m pedestal. If the robot produces a 3000 N force in the...

    Calculating Concrete slab bending stress

    I'm trying to calculate the bending stress on a concrete floor slab due to a force of 31000N 1m above the floor. The slab size is 6 in. thick by 16 ft by 8 ft wide. Does anyone have any advice on the best way to go about this simple calculation? Can I assume that it is simply supported...
