Abstract
The distribution of forces in the beams of a straight and oblique monolithic reinforced concrete caisson fl oor of a square plan is compared. The forces in the beams are determined by well-known analytical methods and using fi nite element models of the SCAD PC. The calculations showed that the forces in the beams of the oblique caisson fl oor, determined analytically and using computer models, diff er signifi cantly, which indicates the complex operation of the spatial system, which is not taken into account by the analytical calculation method based on the theory of calculating plates supported by the contour. The obtained data indicate that a square caisson fl oor with beams installed at an angle of 450 to the reference contour has greater rigidity and lower values of bending moments compared to straight caissons. When the ratio of the sides of the overlap L2 1,5 . L1 to ensure the eff ect of supporting the contour, the location of the beams in relation to the outer contour should be at an angle of 45.
