Hi all

I am reviewing a typical RCC framed structure. It is a dual system structure.
The consultant has assigned one RCC slab as Shell (175mm) and adjacent slab (200mm ) as a membrane. In the same model, will it be appropriate to consider two different approaches? But the entire floor has been defined as a single diaphragm (D1)


regards
