2 Temperature Stress
The temperature differential as per table 4 for A.P.for a slab thickness
3 17.3°C
of 150 mm is
For a contraction joint spacing of 3.75 x 4.50 mtrs, the radius of
4
relative stiffness ℓ is as under:
5 L = 4500 mm, B = 3750 mm,
6 The radius of relative stiffness ℓ i = {Eh3/12 k (1-µ2)}1/4 673.31 mm
where E = 3 x10 N/ mm , h = 150 mm, µ = 0.15, k = 42 x 10 N/mm /mm

2 Temperature Stress:
From table 3, the temperature differential for AP for the slab thickness
3 19.0°C
of 200 mm is 19 ° C.
4 ℓ is radius of relative stiffness = {Eh3/12 k (1-µ2)}1/4 = 835.44 mm
where E = 3 x10 N/ mm , h = 200 mm, µ = 0.15, k = 42 x 10 N/mm /mm

The Corner stress is less than 4.60 Mpa and hence assumed
thickness of 200 mm is OK
