Q.

A rectangular slab of size 5M X 6M a simply supported all

around is reinforced with 10MM dia bars @ spacing of 200MMC/C
in shorter sapn &10MM dia bars @ spacing of 225MM in longer
direction. Determine the super imposed loadthe slab can carry safely.
If grade of concrete is M20 & grade of steel FE415. And effective
depth of slab 120MM & over all depth of slab 150MM.
1. DESIGN DATA

2. Depth of slab
Over all depth of slab (D) 150 MM
150
Asumme clear cover as 20 to 30 MM
Effective depth (d) 120 MM

3. Ast Calculation
Sapcing ( Area of bar / Total area )*1000
Ast 392.69875 MM2 Shotrer span
Ast 349.065555556 MM2 Longer span
