Flexion of Slabs on Linear Supports

This lecture covers the flexion of slabs, an extension of beam flexion, emphasizing the slab's deformation under loads, different types of supports, and continuous slabs. The instructor demonstrates how slabs deform under various conditions and explains the difference between slabs and floors. The lecture also discusses unidirectional and bidirectional slabs, as well as the structural behavior of slabs supported by walls or beams. The importance of understanding slab deformation and the various support conditions for slabs is highlighted throughout the lecture.
