Reinforced concrete structures II – Ribbed slab Example 2

Example 2.2 [Ribbed slab design]

A typical floor system of a lecture hall is to be designed as a ribbed slab. The joists which are spaced at
400mm are supported by girders. The overall depth of the slab without finishing materials is 300mm.
Imposed load of 1.5KN/m2 for partition and fixture is considered in the design. In addition, the floor has
a floor finish material of 3cm marble over a 2cm cement screed and it ha 2cm plastering as ceiling. Take
the unit weight of ribbed block to be 2KN/m2.

Use: C 20/25

S – 300

Step 2: Verify if the general requirements for Rib slab are met using Euro Code 2
1. The centers of the ribs should not exceed 1.5 m:
- This is satisfied, as the center-to-center spacing between the ribs is 400mm.
2. The depth of ribs excluding topping should not exceed four times their average width.
- Also satisfied as 80 x 4 > 240 mm.
3. The minimum rib width should be determined by consideration of cover, bar spacing
and fire resistance
- BS 8110 code - recommends 125 mm,
- Assume for this example the conditions are satisfied hence assume requirement
satisfied.
4. The thickness of structural topping or flange should not be less than 50mm or one tenth
of the clear distance between ribs.
- 60 mm satisfies this requirement.
Step 3: Loading
Dead load:

 Joist→ 0.2 * 0.08 * 25 = 0.4

 Topping→ 0.4 * 0.06 * 25 = 0.6
 Floor finish → 0.4 * 0.03 * 27 = 0.32
 Cement Screed → 0.4 * 0.02 * 23 = 0.184

2
 Reinforced concrete structures II – Ribbed slab Example 2

 Plastering → 0.4 * 0.02 * 23 = 0.184

 Partition and fittings → 0.4*1.5 = 0.6
 Ribbed block → 0.4 * 2 = 0.8

Gk = 3.092 KN/m

Live load:

 Qk = 4KN/m2 * 0.4 = 1.6 KN/m

Design load:

 𝐺𝑑 = 1.35 ∗ 𝐺𝑘 = 1.35 ∗ 3.092 = 4.174𝐾𝑁/𝑚

 𝑄𝑑 = 1.5 ∗ 𝑄𝑘 = 1.5 ∗ 1.6 = 2.4𝐾𝑁/𝑚

i) Full design load

ii) Maximum support moment [at B and C]

Step 5.Loading on Girders

- Assume Width of girders A , D ………….W=300mm
B, C ………….W=600mm

For all girders …...D=300mm

- Note: the section should be checked for serviceability

 Self-weight: A & D …………= 0.3 x 0.3 x 25 = 2.25 KN. m

B&C …………= 0.6 x 0.3 x 25 = 4.5 KN. m

 Design loads: A & D …………Gd = 1.35 x2.25 = 3.04 KN. m

B & C …….……Gd= 1.35 x4.5 = 6.08 KN. M

Step 6. Analysis of Girders

i. For Girder on axis “A” and “D”

Step 7.Loading on the Beam …. Axis 1, 2 and 3

- Self-weight width= 200 mm

Depth= 300 mm
N.B: cross section should be checked for serviceability.
Since there are columns at the intersection of the beams and girders, the beams will only support
their own loads.
