When the Moment of Inertia of all the beams is equal and assuming the load as unit load then
the equation is reduced as:
d1, d2 Positive
d3, d4 Negative

Pigeauds method
For slabs restrained on all sides and
patch load at the center.
The bending moments both ways
are determined by using the
Piegeauds curves.
Bogie
Curves for M1 (K=0.4)
The graphs are read for the values of K, u/B and v/L which are ratios of
dimensions of the load patch and the size of the slab within the girders.
