Thickened part of the flat slab over its supporting column is known as :
Answer: C
The thickened part of the slab over a column is the drop panel.
In a flat slab the slab rests directly on the columns, so shear and negative moment are concentrated around each column. A drop is a local thickening of the slab itself over the column, which increases the depth there to resist punching shear and hogging moment.
A column head, also called a capital, is the flared top of the column, not part of the slab. 'Beam head and panel' is not a flat slab term; a flat slab has no beams at all.
