Reinforced ConcreteIntroduction to Direct Design Method:
It isa simplified process to determine the design bending moment of the
reinforced slab in two directions. The components designed using this program meet the
strength requirements of the structure and most of the conditions required to maintain
adequate performance under service loads. This method makes the si
nplicity of its
procedures consistent with the results obtained through theoretical procedures and the
observations made over the years
sing such structures. This method is applied to the
two directions of floor reinforcement. For analysis, the slab is divided into sections
consisting of columns and two central halves, one on each side. These parts of the slab
are treated as wide flat beams and are analyzed independently of each other.
This method basically includes three stages:
* The determination of the total static moment Mo is equal to the sum of the
positive moment at the center of the span between the supports and the negative
moment on them, * The total static moment distribution between the support and the
center of the span.
* The distribution of positive moments at the column bar and the central half-
spectively.
Some limitations of this method are:
1. The slab must have at least three layers in each direction.
2. The panel must be rectangular, and the ratio of the maximum and minimum
center-to-center dimensions is less than 2.
3. The center span of adjacent spans does not differ by more than one-third of the
larger of the two spans.
4. The offset between the column and its main axis shall not exceed 10% of the
center-to-
center span of the continuous column
5. All applied loads shall be gravity loads and shall be evenly distributed
throughout the span. The live load should be less than twice the dead load, This
method provides live load alternationExercise of Direct Design
1. First, we need to estimate a live load and dead live.
Dead Load.

Reinforce concrete 48 T KN/m2
Brick masonry 45 | KNim2
Steel 195 KN/m2
Total 28,8 KN/m2

Total 12,5 KN/m2
2. Data with use to calculate de the total static moment.
