Design of a One-way Slab

Objective: To be able to design a one-way slab panel by WSD method.

Materials Needed:
1. Architectural plan and the floor framing plan
2. Pencil and ruler

Discussion:
Concrete slabs are generally used as floors for buildings. They are basically
classified as one-way and two-way slabs. A slab may be supported on two
opposite sides, on three sides or in four sides. If the ratio of the short span to the
long span of the slab panel is less the 0.5 is called as one-way slab. The
deformation of a one-way slab under loads is similar to a cylindrical surface,
where bending will only be on the short direction.
The analysis of one-way slab will be carried by taking a unit strip in the
short direction. This will be considered as a rectangular beam with a unit width
and a depth equal to the thickness of the slab. The span is equal to the distance
between the supported edges in the short direction. The method of analysis will be
similar to that of a rectangular beam.

Procedure:
1. Select the material properties such as compressive strength of concrete and the
allowable tensile strength of steel.
2. Select the panel to be designed.
3. Determine the support condition of the panel .
4. Using the ACI code provision, solve the minimum thickness of the slab.
5. Consider a typical one-meter strip of the slab.
6. Assume the live load and compute the dead load including the self weight of
the slab.
7. Compute the maximum positive and negative moments of the slab using the
ACI moment coefficients.
8. Determine the effective depth from flexure.
9. Design the main reinforcement and the temperature bars.
10. Draw the complete details.

Design of a Two-way Edge Supported Slab

Objective: To be able to design a two-way slab panel by the Coefficient Method(WSD).

Materials Needed:
1. Architectural plan and the floor framing plan
2. Pencil and ruler

Discussion:
A concrete slab panel supported with beams on all four edges and with a
ratio of the short to long span equal to or larger than 0.5 is a two way slab. This
panel will deform under loads like a dish surface. At any point in the panel, the
slab is curved in both principal directions thus moments exist in both directions.
To resist these moments, the slab will be reinforced in both directions.
The analysis and design of the two-way slab in which edge supports are
stiff enough to be considered unyielding may be done using the coefficient
method.

Procedure:
1. Select the material properties such as compressive strength of concrete and the
allowable tensile strength of steel.
2. Select the panel to be designed.
3. Determine the support condition of the panel.
4. Using the ACI code provision, solve the minimum thickness of the slab.
5. Assume the live load and compute the dead load including the self weight of the
slab.
6. Divide the panel into a column strip and a middle strip in the short and the long
direction.
7. Consider a typical one-meter strip of the slab in the middle strip section.
8. Compute the maximum positive and negative moments of the slab by reading
the corresponding coefficients in the appropriate table provided in the book for
coefficient method of designing a two-way slab.
9. Determine the effective depth from flexure.
10. Design the reinforcements in both directions. The reinforcements in the short
direction shall be placed below the bars in the long direction.
11. The reinforcements in the column strip shall be 1.5 times the spacing of the bars
in the middle strip in both directions.
12. Draw the complete details.

Design of a Continuous Beam

Objective: To be able to design a continuous beam using the ACI Moment Coefficients
(WSD).
Materials Needed:
1. Architectural plan and the floor framing plan
2. Pencil and ruler
Discussion:
The ACI moment coefficients were derived by elastic analysis, considering a
combination of placements of live load to yield maximum negative or positive
moments at the critical sections. They are applicable within the following
limitations:
1. There are two or more spans.
2. Spans are approximately equal, with the longer of the two adjacent spans
not greater than the shorter by more than 20%.
3. Loads are uniformly distributed.
4. The unit live load does not exceed 3 times the unit dead load.
5. Members are prismatic.
Procedure:
1. Select the material properties such as compressive strength of concrete
and the allowable tensile strength of steel.
2. Select the beam in the floor framing plan to be designed.
3. Determine the support conditions of the beam.
4. Using the ACI code provision, solve the minimum depth of the beam.
5. Select the trial section of the beam.
6. Using the live load and the dead load carried by the slab, compute the
uniform loads for the beam. Add the weight of the trial section to the dead
load.
7. Compute the maximum positive and negative moments of the beam by
reading the corresponding coefficients from the table provided by the ACI
moment coefficients.
8. Determine the effective depth of the beam from flexure.
9. Compare this depth with the effective depth of the trial section. The
selected depth is generally larger than the computed depth.

Design of a Continuous Beam(USD)

Objective: To be able to design a continuous beam by Ultimate Strength Design Method.

Materials Needed:
1. Architectural plan and the floor framing plan
2. Pencil and ruler

Discussion:
Reinforced concrete building construction commonly has floor slabs,
beams, girders and columns continuously placed to form a monolithic system.
Intermediate beams are supported on girders and beams on column lines are
supported directly by the columns. Consequently these beams are built integrally
with their supports. The complete frame in this plane should be analyzed as a
rigid frame. In the analysis for gravity loads on regular building frames,
according to ACI 8.9.1, the beams and the adjacent columns may be isolated and
treated as subassembly, with the far ends of columns assumed as fixed. The live
loads shall be positioned such that they will cause the largest bending moments in
slabs, beams, girders and columns under consideration. It will be assumed that
factored dead loads shall be applied to all spans. For maximum moments within
the span, apply the live load on that span and all other alternate spans. For
maximum negative moment at support, apply the live load on the two spans
adjacent to that support and all other alternate spans.

Procedure:
1. Select the material properties such as compressive strength of concrete and the
allowable tensile strength of steel.
2. Select the beam in the floor framing plan to be designed.
3. Determine the support conditions of the beam.
4. Using the ACI code provision, solve the minimum depth of the beam.
5. Select the trial section of the beam.
6. Using the live load and the dead load carried by the slab, compute the uniform
loads for the beam. Add the weight of the trial section to the dead load.
7. Compute the maximum positive and negative moments of the beam.
8. Determine the effective depth of the beam from flexure.
9. Compare this depth with the effective depth of the trial section.
10. Check the weight of the beam. Repeat steps 7-9 if necessary.
11. Design the longitudinal reinforcements.
12. Check the beam for shear and design the web reinforcements. Select a closer
spacing of stirrups near the support, ie, satisfying the code seismic detailing
requirements.
13. Draw the complete details.

Plate No. V.
Design of Slender Rectangular Column of a Braced Frame

Objective: To be able to design a tied slender column of a frame braced against sideway
using the ACI interaction diagrams

Materials Needed:
1. Architectural plan and structural analysis of the framing system of the building
2. Pencil and ruler

Discussion:
Compression members having slenderness ratio L/r greater the about 70 will
have considerable reduction in strength, both due to likelihood of buckling and
secondary bending moments. ACI code specifications are provided to take into
account the length effects on long compression members.
In the ACI code, the evaluation of the effects of slenderness may be
approximated by using the moment magnifier approach, whereby the sum of the
primary and secondary moments is being treated as being equal to the product of
the primary moment and a magnification factor.

Procedure:
1. Select the material properties such as compressive strength of concrete and the
ultimate strength of steel.
2. Select in the floor framing plan the critically loaded column to be designed.
3. Determine the total axial load and the moment that will be carried by the
column.
4. Select a trial diameter of the column.
5. Determine the slenderness ratio and check if slenderness effect will be
considered in the analysis.
6. Compute the ACI moment magnifier of the braced frame
7. Solve the magnified moment and compute the eccentricity by dividing the
magnified moment by the total ultimate axial load
8. Determine the capacity of the section using the appropriate ACI interaction
diagram. Compare computed column capacity with the actual column load. If
the computed column load is less than the actual column load then the trial
section inadequate or will fail, otherwise, the section is adequate or safe.
9. Repeat steps 4-9 until a safe section is attained.
10. Design the ties. Provide ties with closer spacing near the joint, i.e., satisfying
seismic detailing requirements of the ACI code.
11. Draw the complete details of the column.

Design of Slender Spiral Column of the Unbraced Frame

Objective: To be able to design a tied slender column of a frame not braced against
sidesway using the ACI interaction diagrams.

Discussion:
The general analysis of unbraced frames is practical only with the aid of
sophisticated second-order analysis computer program, but the ACI permits
approximate moment magnifier method. This method involves the use of first
order non-sway frame analysis to obtain the end moments of individual member
cause by the factored gravity loads. Another first order sway frame analysis will
be performed to obtain the end moments of individual member cause by the
factored lateral loads. The final end moments which will be used for designing
the member will be the sum of the end moment due to the factored gravity
loads and the end moments due to the lateral load with the later multiplied by
the ACI moment magnifier, i.e,
M1 = M1ns + sM1s
M2 = M2ns + sM2s
Materials Needed:
1. Architectural plan and structural analysis of the framing system of the building
2. Pencil and ruler

Procedure:
1. Select the material properties such as compressive strength of concrete and the
ultimate strength of steel.
2. Select in the floor framing plan the critically loaded column to be designed.
3. Determine the total axial load and the moment that will be carried by the
column.
4. Select the trial section of the column.
5. Determine the effective length factor ‘k’ using the alignment chart.
6. Determine the slenderness ratio and check if slenderness effect will be
considered in the analysis.
7. Compute the ACI moment magnifier of the unbraced frame
8. Solve the magnified moment and compute the eccentricity by dividing the
magnified moment by the total ultimate axial load
9. Determine the capacity of the section using the appropriate ACI interaction
diagram. Compare computed column capacity with the actual column load. If
the computed column load is less than the actual column load then the trial
section inadequate or will fail, otherwise, the section is adequate or safe.
10. Repeat steps 4-9 until a safe section is attained.
11. Design the ties. Provide ties with closer spacing near the joint , i.e, satisfying
seismic detailing requirements of the ACI code.
12. Draw the complete details of the column.
