The difference between the slab elevations are typically between 3 to 4 feet and a single 3 to 4 feet deep concrete beam support both slab edges.</p> <p></p> <p>Thank you for your guidance!&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>Ask A Question Ihttps://communities.bentley.com/achievements/460ac7df-7ccc-4c42-a204-9e05eef3be09Tue, 29 Sep 2020 03:32:29 GMT6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:71829a53-8197-4f14-bccf-35645b827cd0Ask a question in a forum.
