Abstract. The article focuses on determining the optimal spacing of formwork struts for monolithic reinforced concrete floors to ensure safety and minimize deformations during concreting. Based on the analysis of regulatory documents and mathematical modeling, the total load was calculated, including the weight of concrete, reinforcement, dynamic, and technological impacts. A methodology for calculating the strut spacing using a square distribution to ensure uniform load distribution was developed. Verification of the deflection of primary and secondary beams confirmed compliance with permissible norms. The results demonstrate that the proposed approach optimizes formwork design, reduces labor intensity, and improves design accuracy. The study has practical significance for construction organizations involved in the erection of monolithic structures.
