Question: Design forms to support a flat slab floor 9 in . thick of normal weight concrete using Douglas Fir Larch forming members and steel shoring.

Design forms to support a flat slab floor 9 in. thick of normal weight concrete using Douglas Fir Larch forming members and steel shoring. Since forms will have continuing reuse, do not adjust base design values for short term load. In this case, assume 1-1/8 inch Plyform Class 1 for the sheathing.
Part 1. Estimate the Design Loads
Part 2. Determine (appropriate) Joist Spacing
Part 3. Determine Joist Size and (appropriate) Stringer Spacing
