Since high strength steel is being used and the span is less than 7 m, the correction factors can
be taken as unity (1.0). Therefore, d = 140 mm.
Total dead load, Gk = Self weight of slab + Permanent actions = 4.25 + 5.0 = 9.25 kN/m2.
Total live load, Qk = 2.5 kN/m2.
For a 1-metre width (b) of slab:
Ultimate load, n = [1.35 Gk + 1.5 Qk] [b]
Thus, n = [1.35 (9.25) + 1.5 (2.5)] [1] = 16.24 kN/m

For r = 0.31% and fck = 30 N/mm2, the basic span to effective depth ratio = 39.
Actual span to effective depth ratio = 25.
Since basic ratio > actual ratio, the depth can be considered acceptable.

Thus, since As provided is greater than the minimum, H10 @ 175 mm C/C is acceptable.
b) Secondary reinforcement (Distribution steel)
Secondary reinforcement = 20 % x As required.
Thus, secondary reinforcement = (20/100) x 430 = 86 mm2/m.

Since maximum spacing can be 300 mm, the spacing for the secondary reinforcement is
taken as same.
Thus, provide H08 @ 300 mm (B2 T2) spacing C/C, with secondary reinforcement area
of 168 mm2/m.
c) Crack control
Maximum spacing of bars should be < 3h or less than 400 mm, whichever is the maximum.
3 h = 3 x 170 = 510 mm.
Since maximum spacing = 300 mm, crack control is considered to be appropriate.
d) End anchorage
For fck 30/35 N/mm2, the tension anchorage length is given as 51 of main bars.
Thus, tension anchorage length = 51 x 10 = 510 mm, which is taken as 525 mm.
e) Curtailment
Curtailment of main bars: - Curtail main bars at 50 mm from support.
At supports: - 50% of As to be anchored from face of support.
Therefore, 50% of As = 0.5 x 430 = 215 mm2/m
