AD-A237 199 JU 2 719 C May 1991 N U Ez L By G.E. Warren and L.J. Malvar Sponsored By Naval Facilities Technical Report Engineering Command LATERAL LOAD DISTRIBUTION IN ONE-WAY FLAT SLABS ABSTRACT Results of laboratory model tests, inservice pier tests, classical plate theory, and finite element analyses provide the basis for changes in Military Handbook 1025/1 addressing flat slab pier deck design to distribute truck crane outrigger loads. The concentrated load distribu- tion efficiency of Navy pier slabs can be doubled over current AASHTO allowables. For pier deck designs where large, truck-mounted cranes dominate load requirements, this will result in higher load capacity, longer spans, and less construction material. Further, the verified effective- ness of lateral load distribution would almost double outrigger load-carrying efficiency of current Navy pier decks. 2 NVFIAL C 'VIL, ENG INEER ING LABORATORY X)."
