The introduction of Eurocodes in the designing practices led to the change of methodology of the floor reinforcement, particularly for slab-column floors. Until now, the most important decisive factor was the determination and arrangement of reinforcement due to the limit states; any other problems were treated as additional information. At present designers - constructors of reinforcement in slab-column structures have to follow Eurocodes (PN-EN 1990:2004, PN-EN 1991-1-1:2004, PN-EN 1991-1-7:2008) in taking into account first and foremost the following threats accidental loadings and fires, as they influence further stages of the designing process. The article presents the most important design guidelines for slab-column structures due to accidental loads.
