Deflection: (Using Simplified Method of IS 456:2000)
99.1 INTRODUCTION:
When a structural member like beam, slab etc. are loaded due to dead load or super imposed load,
they deflect in a particular pattern. The pattern is parabolic for applied uniformly distributed
loading, triangular for point loading or concentrated loading, trapezoidal for two concentrated
load acting at middle third of span or any convinient shape as per loading pattern. All the above
patterns are for simple support.
But in this chapter in depth study as mentioned in Annexure-C of IS 456 : 2000 will not be used;
instead simplified deflection check as specified in clause - 23.2 of IS 456 : 2000 will be used.
Note : Detailed analysis is done in the reference-13 i.e. Analysis and Design of T-beam Bridge

Where C1 = constant depending upon support condition for udl.
By going through extensive research and field servey, it’s found that, the deflection can be limited
to certain fraction of length to constant i.e. l / C2 in general.

To account for steel fraction and non-homogeneous nature of concrete instead of taking l / D ,
l / d is taken into account by IS code and the value of ‘K’ is fixed.
9.3.1 The final deflection due to all possible type of loading due to creep, shrinkage and temperature
effect etc. should not be greater than span/250 which is measured from as last level of supports of
roofs.
9.3.2 The deflection including effect of temperature, creep and shrinkage occurring after erection of
partitions and the application of finishes should be restricted to span/350 or 20 mm whichever is
lesser.
9.3.3 The span to depth ratio should be limited to the following values in case of span up to 10m.
* Cantilever 7
* Simply supported 20
* Continuous 26
9.3.4 If the span length exceeds 10m, then the above values should be multiplied to 10/span incase of
absence of detailed analysis except for cantilever section; for which detailed analysis is
mandatory.
9.3.5 The values of section 9.3.3 should be multiplied with fig.-4 and fig.-5 of IS 456:2000 taking
tension and compression steel into account both the figures are reproduced here below.

9.3.6 In case of flanged beam, i.e. for T-beam or L-beam or I-section beam, the value given in section
9.3.3 will be further modified as per fig.-6 of IS 456 : 2000 after modification using section 9.3.4
and 9.3.5. The figure is reproduced here below. Also in this case the area will be taken ‘bfd’ for
modification while using section 9.3.4 and section 9.3.5.
9.3.7 In case of slabs spanning in two directions, shorter span will be considered for calculation of span
to effective depth ratio.
9.3.8 For two-way slabs of shorter span (upto 3.5m) and reinforced with mild steel bars along with
loading class upto 3 kN/m2, following values should be used. Also in case HYSD bars are used for
reinforcement, the values given below will be multiplied by 0.8.
* Simply supported slab 35
* Continuous slab 40
