The above study indicates that finite element modelling is properly able to simulate the behaviour and strength of lightweight aggregate RC slab and normal weight aggregate RC slabs under flexure. The slabs were studied for ultimate load, load–deflection behaviour for each case and compared with the available experimental values. The spacing of the main reinforcement of three slabs was 150,175,200 mm respectively. The main and distribution steel was of 8 mm diameter. The slab had an overall dimension of 1500x1000x70 mm.

A total 6 slabs were analysed, out of which 3 were lightweight aggregate RC slabs and other 3 were normal weight aggregate RC slabs and grade of concrete used was M30 for all the slabs. 15 Fusion bonded epoxy coated reinforcement. My elements are Solid65, Link180, and Solid185. The concrete is modelled using ‘SOLID65’– eight–node ick element, which is capable of ittle materials and the tension reinforcement has been modelled discretely using ‘LINK180’–3D spar element. In this study, the slabs were modelled using ANSYS V.15 nonlinear finite element software. This paper presents a nonlinear finite element analysis of lightweight aggregate reinforced concrete slab.
