Analysis and computer program for non-prismatic continuous beam and floor section
… when all three spans were subjected to uniformly distributed loads. Several tests were conducted on a full-scale 8 ft. by 48 ft. floor section. Deflection from the experimental tests on continuous joist alone and with plywood subfloor were statistically compared with theoretical …
