A 8 m x 5 m rectangular slab is fixed at all edges and the support moment capacities are the same as the midspan moment capacities in each direction. If the collapse load is 15 kN/m“, determine the moment capacities. Assume Mpx = 0.4 Mpy. Determine the effect of an additional ultimate line load of 20 kN/m located at the middle of the shorter span parallel to its longer span.
