Diagram shows slab and rib width with rules of thumb formula. Slab depth is typically 75 mm (3 in) to 130 mm (5 in) thick. [5] [3] As a rule of thumb, the depth should be 1 ⁄ 24 of the span. [5] The width of the ribs is typically 130 mm (5 in) to 150 mm (6 in), and ribs usually have steel rod reinforcements. [5]

Park's approach was based on rigid plastic slab strip theory, and required the assumption of a critical deflection of one half of the slab depth at failure. Park's approach was later extended by Park and Gamble [ 9 ] in their method for predicting the plastic load-deformation response of laterally restrained slabs.
