Abstract
The exact static exterior and interior solution of Einstein's equations for a plane thick disk is obtained. It has been shown that the corresponding energy-momentum tensor fulfils the generalized O'Brien-Synge junction conditions. The correspondence of this tensor to the surface energy-momentum tensor of a thin plane plate is demonstrated. The disk being neither very thick nor very dense, a connection with the Newtonian theory has been obtained.
