DEFLECTIONS
Excessive deflections will:
Cause aesthetic problems
Raise concerns about the safety of the structure
Cause cracking of partitions, ceiling, etc.
Alter the basic geometry of the structure may lead to
unexpected second-order effects

where:
fs = tensile stress in reinforcement under service load
≈ 0.6fy (can be used in lieu of more detailed analysis)
dc = distance from c.g. of extreme layer of reinforcement to
tension surface of concrete (Note: clear cover need not be taken
larger than 50 mm when determining dc)
A = effective tension area of concrete surrounding the main
tension reinforcement, divided by the number of bars
