I. live load patterns

disposition of live load C.8.11

By placing the live load in this way is sought to obtain the most unfavorable bending
moments in the halves of lights and joint.
With these charge patterns mounting structure in software SAP2000 was performed, and
combinations envelope was created; with which the maximum bending moment and shear
present on slabs were determined using the software functions. These being:
𝑴𝒖 = −16.32 𝐾𝑁/𝑚2
𝑽𝒖 = 25.02 𝐾𝑁
This will be the bending moment used for designing the slab.

quantity, is chosen and used; as a result, the minimum quantity predominates, therefore,it
is necessary to recalculate minimum steel.

NOTE: In this case the steel that rules is minimum quantity steel, therefore it is also
convenient to work with the same flexural steel for shrinkage and temperature
reinforcement and also with the same separation.

will be used in the cross direction.
