Abstract

Many types of loading the structure must sustain in addition to dead and live loads according to the function of structural element type that must be taken in analysis. Dynamic resistance to loading of reinforced concrete slabs using self-compact reactive powder concrete, with different boundary conditions at the sides in addition of static loading was studied. The reinforced concrete slabs were designed under static load according to ACI-318R-2014 and then the adequacy was checked under harmonic dynamic loading. The static loading consists of dead load and residential live load considering according to ASCE-07-2010. Modeling analysis was performed to determine the eigenvalues and eigenvectors values and then frequency response analyses of the slab by finite elements method that adopted for analysis. The results indicated that in case of self-compacted reactive powder concrete rather than normal concrete gave deflection less and also there was a different result of deflection according the type of slab boundary condition supports.
