WEEK 4:

RC SLAB DESIGN TO EC2: PART 3

TWO-WAY SPANNING SLAB

ADDITIONAL NOTE
CONVENTIONAL RC SLAB

Two-way slab

- Deflect in both direction

- Length (ly)/width(lx) ≤ 2
- Longitudinal reinforcement is
provided in both directions

TWO WAY SLAB
(Slab supported by four edge beams)

- Load transfer in both direction

TWO WAY SIMPLY SUPPORTED SLAB

 Supported on its four side

 Deflect about both axes
 Corner will tend to lift and
curl causing torsional moments

There are nine different types of support ly

conditions on edge of individual slabs such as
 Case 1: four edges continuous
 Case 2: one short edges discont.
 Case 3: one long edges discont.
 Case 4: two adjacent edge discont.
 Case 5: two short edges discont.
 Case 6: two long edges discont.
 Case 7: three edges discont. (one long
edge continuous)
 Case 8: three edges discont. (one short
edge continuous)
 Case 9: four edges discont.

SLAB DESIGN STEPS
EXAMPLE :

EXAMPLE: SEP2011
SOLUTION…
a)Ultimate design load, wd=?
 Slab self weight = 0.15 x 25 = 3.75 kN/m2
Gk (given) = 1.5 kN/m2
Total Gk = 5.25 kN/m2
Qk (given) = 5.00 kN/m2
 Design load, n = 1.35Gk + 1.5Qk = 1.35(5.25) + 1.5(5) = 14.59 kN/m2
 Therefore , ultimate design load, nd = 14.59 x 1 m = 14.59 kN/m

b)Bending reinf. for x-direction …

 Moment calculation (case 1)
 Ly/lx = 7/5 = 1.4
 βsx = -0.05 (at support) βsy = -0.032 (at support)
= 0.037 (at midspan) = 0.024 (at midspan)
 At x-direction …
 Midspan moment = 0.037(14.59)(5)2 = 13.50 kNm
 Support moment = 0.050(14.59)(5)2 = 18.24 kNm
 At y-direction …
 Midspan moment = 0.024(14.59)(5)2 = 8.75 kNm
 Support moment = 0.032(14.59)(5)2 = 11.67 kNm

Therefore… moment for midspan x-direction

M = 13.50 kNm = MED
 Effective depth , d = 150 -25 – 0.5(10) = 120 mm
 K = M/bd2fck =
 z=
 As =
 Asmin=
 Asmax =
(c) Check critical shear. Vmax = 20 kN = VED
 VRD,C = (0.12k [100.pl.fck]1/3)b.d
 k = 1 + (200/d)1/2 = < 2.0
 pl = Asprov / b.d = < 0.02

 Vmin = [0.035.k3/2.fck1/2]b.d =
 Use VRD,C =
 If VED < VRD,C …shear check ok!
(d) Deflection check
 p= Asreq /b.d =
 p0 = (fck)1/2 x 10-3 =
 If p < p0 use eqn. 7.16(a) if p>p0 use eqn. 7.16(b)

 l/d allowable = l/d x M. F

 l/d allowable > span/effective depth Deflection check pass
