To design a slab-on-ground in greenSlab, enter the required data.

1. Starting with "Analysis Parameters", consisting of the code, national annex, partial coefficients, and shrinkage parameters.
2. Under "Geometry", type in the slab thickness and size, field dimensions and joint type.
3. Concrete quality and strength, cement class and humidity used for shrinkage calculations, but also the CO2 emission of the concrete, is given under "Material Properties".
4. The stiffness of the subbase is calculated for any number of layers, defined directly as the modulus of subgrade, or as either ground or insulation.
   1. For insulation, specify the type and thickness.
   2. For ground, calculate the stiffness from different ground parameters, or choose a predefined type.
5. Under "Loads", add unlimited load cases. Either saved custom loads, predefined loads according to standards that automatically inserts all load parameters, or add loads manually.
   1. Specify the load name, its type, and distribution. Enter the magnitude, shape and contact area. You can even specify the load's position on the slab.
6. As reinforcement, you can add fiber reinforcement, steel reinforcement, or both, and even local reinforcement, to make the best solution for your project.
7. Once completed, results will appear on the left, displaying bearing capacities, diagrams, CO2 emissions, and thermal transmittance for design verification and optimization!
