摘要：Transfer slab is the kind of frame in which upper storey column are directly supported over the slab or from which picked up columns may be started where there are no columns underneath. By using this technique the overall cost of the building can be reduced and excess stories can be constructed in the same height of the building due to eliminations of beams and same columns in the foundations or upper stories . This technique will allow to use more area with cheaper formwork . The purpose of this paper is to get better understanding about the Transfer slab analysis and design. The residential building model is analyzed using the software STAAD.PRO V8i .IS codes like IS456-2000, ACI-318-08 are used for guidelines.
