Le calcul des contraintes dans les dalles de béton soumises à de fortes charges mobiles a permis de déterminer les épaisseurs de dalles à prévoir en fonction: de la résistance du sol, de la résistance du béton utilisé, de l'importance des charges ainsi que de leur position par rapport au bord libre de la dalle. (...) L'étude de l'effet de ces facteurs montre que la capacité de charge d'une dalle dépend principalement de son épaisseur, de sa résistance à la flexion et de la surface d'application de la charge. 1, record 2, French, - capacit%C3%A9%20de%20charge
