This model describes a concrete slab over columns where smoothed internal forces are used to reduce stress peaks. The calculation approaches are based on singularity reduction and reinforced concrete design. The concept demonstrates how targeted smoothing can minimize stress peaks. The attached image (https://www.dlubal.com/de/img/15021) illustrates the spatial arrangement as well as the essential details of the slab model.
