SOLUTIONS FOR CERTAIN RECTANGULAR<br />

SLABS<br />

The solution may be modified <strong>for</strong> rigid beams by letting Hi = oo.<br />

This special case is treated more fully in Section 39 <strong>for</strong> a central<br />

position of the load on the panel.<br />

11. The Infinitely Long Slab Having Three Uni<strong>for</strong>mly Spaced<br />

Flexible Cross Beams and Supporting a Concentrated Load Over the<br />

Center Beam.-The slab is shown in Fig. 13. Using the same method<br />

FIG. 13<br />

as was used in the previous examples with <strong>flexible</strong> beams, one finds<br />

the deflection of the slab <strong>for</strong> b > y > 0 to be<br />
