Ferro concrete is one of the developments arising material an alternative for the traditional RCC in numerous viewpoints. Ferro concrete is the fate of the minimal expense houses and precast houses. Folded plates are answer for the more extended range rooftops in prudent and aesthetical manner. This project consolidates the upsides of both Ferro concrete and collapsed plate. The box type Ferro concrete collapsed plates of size 0.6 m x 1.80 m x 0.15 m are casted by thinking about various diaries and RCC collapsed plates in thought while fixing dimensions. In first period of trial various properties of materials utilized for projecting are tried and compressive strength of the mortar utilized is tried, the test is done at 1:2 of concrete: sand proportion and 0.35 water concrete ratio. In second stage the example is casted with Stainless Steel cross section of 2 mm opening is utilized and 2 layers on front and posteriors of 6mm width 150m divided skeleton steel is laid. The projected examples is tried for 28 days strength in stacking outline and the outcomes are contrasted and logical investigation Using ANSYS for load versus redirection and reasonableness of Ferro concrete application in collapsed plates are studies. The test results are shown acceptable outcomes, at last with low consumption and low self-weight Ferro concrete constructions are acceptable substitute for RCC.
