Abstract

At present, new building projects are being developed that involve additional considerations in computational modelling, analysis and structural design. An example of this is the structural slabs with complex shapes, widely used in contemporary architectural proposal. This work has the objective of presenting the structural conception, computational modelling, analysis and structural design of the curve roof slab of the Convention Center of a hotel located in Havana. ETABS v17 software was used. The analysis includes the calculation of reinforcement based on the Strength Limit and the verification of Serviceability in terms of deflections and cracking by ACI-318 (2019) and NC-207 (2019). Compliance with fire resistance requirements is also verified.
