In this research paper, an analytical formulation is presented to predict the moment field of the laterally loaded three-sides supported RC rectangular slabs under the uniform area loading at top surface of the slab. It is also validated with the available published formulations. Design aids were formulated with the help of proposed analytical formulation and are presented here for quick calculations. These design aids were also validated with the help of finite element method based ATENA software.
