4. Analysis

4.1. Moment coefficient: Case 4

Coefficient for Negative Moment

Ca = 0.071 Short direction
Cb = 0.024 Long direction

Coefficient for Dead Load Positive Moment

Ca LL = 0.048 Short direction
Cb LL = 0.020 Long direction

4.2. Negative and Positive Moment

Negative Moment at continuous edges

- Ma = (Ca)(Wu)(La^2) = 8.12 KNm
- Mb = (Cb)(Wu)(Lb^2) = 5.60 KNm

Positive Moment along short direction

+ Ma DL= (Ca DL)(DL)(La^2) = 3.01 KNm
+ Ma LL= (Ca LL)(LL)(La^2) = 1.79 KNm
+ Ma = 4.80 KNm

Positive Moment along long direction'

+ Mb DL = (Ca DL)(DL)(Lb^2) = 2.52 KNm
+ Mb LL = (Ca LL)(LL)(Lb^2) = 1.52 KNm
+ Mb = 4.04 KNm

4.3. Design of Reinforcement

4.3.1 Reinforcement at continuous edge along short direction

concrete cover for slab, cc = 20.00 mm
bar ø = 10.00 mm
width, b = 1,000.00 mm
da = t - c - 0.5(bar Φ) = 75.00 mm
db = t - c - 1.5(bar Φ) = 65.00 mm

Mu = (Ф)(f'c)(b)(da^2)(ω)(1-0.59ω)
solve for ω
ω2 - 1.69ω + 0.131 =0
ω= 0.0814
Actual steel ratio, ρ act
ρ act = (ω)(f'c/fy) = 0.0062 Compliant

Minimum steel ratio, ρ min

Use actual steel
ρ min = 1.4/fy = 0.0051
ratio for design

Maximum steel ratio, ρ max

ρ bal = {(0.85)(β1)(f'c)/fy}{600/(600+fy)} = 0.0377
ρ max = 0.75(ρ bal) = 0.0282 Compliant

Therefore use, ρ govern = 0.0062

t= 100.00 mm is safe for FLEXURE

Steel area, As
As = ρ (b)(d) = 462.96 sq.mm

Steel spacing
S = (1000)(.25π)(D^2)/*As = 169.65 mm

Spacing limits for slab reinforcement

s>t 169.65 > 100.00
s < 3(t) 169.65 < 300.00
s < 450 169.65 < 450.00

4.4. Check for Shear

4.4.1. Consider Short span

Vs = (w)(s) / ((3)(1m)) = 10.89 kN

Actual Vc = Vs / ((0.85)(b)(d)) = 0.17 MPa

Allow Vc = .17 √ f'c = 0.77 MPa

t= 100.00 mm is safe for SHEAR

4.4.2. Consider Long span

Vs = (w)(s) / ((3)(1m)) = 15.56 kN

Actual Vc = Vs / ((0.85)(b)(d)) = 0.28 MPa

Allow Vc = .17 √ f'c = 0.77 MPa

t= 100.00 mm is safe for SHEAR
