Design of Backpropping
Project: Vipul Aarohan
Slab level to be casted: Upper Ground Floor NOTE: Input the values only in the green shaded cells
Ref Code: BS 5975
Construction Load Calculation (CL)
Thickness of slab to be cast (S0) 225 mm Slab to be Casted (UGR)
Wt of slab to be cast 5.6 KN/m2
Construction Loads 2.5 KN/m2
Total Construction Load 8.1 KN/m2 3.3 m
1 Lvl lower slab (GF)
Design load of slab (S1) - GF
Thickness of the Slab, S1 225 mm 5.55 m
Self weight, S1 5.625 KN/m2
SDL 1.5 KN/m2 2 Lvl lower slab (B1)
LL 2 KN/m2
Total Design Service Load 9.125 KN/m2
Assumed strength of S1 slab during casting of So slab 85% of design strength
Design load of slab (S2)- B1 level S1 without Backpropping
Thickness of the slab, S2 225 mm Total Construction Load = 8.125 KN/m2
Self weight, S2 5.625 KN/m2 Self Weight = 5.625 KN/m2
SDL 3 KN/m2 Total load on S1 = 13.75 KN/m2
LL 3 KN/m2 Total Capacity of S1 = 7.75625 KN/m2
Total Design Service Load 11.625 KN/m2 Excess Load on S1 = 5.99375 KN/m2
Backpropping of S1 slab is Required
Design of Backpropping
CL Load Transferred S1 slab= 70% of CL Load transferred to slab, S2
S1 self wt+ 0.7 of Const Load 11.3125 KN/m2 S1 self wt+ 30% of Const Load 8.0625 KN/m2
Service Load Capacity of Slab S1 7.75625 KN/m2 Service Load Capacity of Slab S2 (100% ) 11.625
Excess Construction Load 3.55625 KN/m2 Excess Load -3.5625
% of excess load of Design Serv. Load 39.0 % No further Backpropping is Required
NOTE: If the total load transferred to S1 slab is > 12% of Design Load for Backprops
the design service load, discuss with the designer % of CL transferred to Backprop 30.0%
about dealing with the excess load Load on Backprop 2.4375 KN/m2
Capacity of single prop (Cuplock Tower used) 45 KN
Grid 1.8X1.8 1.8 1.8
Grid area 3.24 m2
Load Per Prop (Cuplock Standard) 7.8975 KN
NOTE: Provided Props are sufficient
