d=95
Assume; d=95
Cover = 25mm
Bar diameter, θ = 12mm
Slab thickness, h = d + cover + 0.5θ
Slab thickness, h = 95 + 25 + (0.5 x 12) = 126mm
Say h = 150mm

1996 Table 1 Assumptions;
 Concrete density = 24kN/m3
Slab thickness = 150mm
Finishes thickness = 40mm
Finishes density = 18kN/m3

Self-weight of the slab = Slab thickness x concrete δ Self-

Self-weight of the slab = 0.15m x 24kN/m3 = weight=3.6kN/m2
3.6kN/m2

Finishes load = Finishes thickness x finishes density

Finishes load = 18 kN/m3 x 0.04m = 0.72kN/m2
Partition walls load = 1.0kN/m2
Load due to @services = 1.4kN/m2 dead load,

Total design load ɳ=15.42kN/m2
ɳ = 1.4Gk + 1.6Qk
ɳ = 1.4 x 6.72 + 1.6 x 3.76 = 15.42kN/m2

Bending moments

Bending moments coefficients
- βsx = 0.056

BS 8110 Part1 M1 =7.9 kNm
1985 Table 3.15 M1 = 0.042 x 20.9 x 3.52 = 7.9 kNm M2 =6.4 kNm
M2 = 0.034 x 20.9 x 3.52 = 6.4 kNm M3 =8.5 kNm
M3 = 0.045 x 20.9 x 3.52 = 8.5 kNm M4= 10.58 kNm
M4 = 0.056 x 20.9 x 3.52 = 10.58 kNm

Design for reinforcements

Since 0.13%< 0.175%< 0.4%, hence it is OK
