Design Criteria and Slab Design
I. Design Criteria:
Loadings:
Parameters:
Max Span = 3.1m
Concrete Strength = 5000 psi
Thickness = 125mm
Rebar = 10mm Diameter @ 100mm Spacing Top bar and bottom bar both ways, 275MPa
Loadings:
Max Shear = 22.32 KN, Max Moment = 17.3 KN-m, Max Deflection = 4.46
Design checking of slab:
Mu = ΦFc’bd^2*ω*(1-0.59* ω)
17300000 = 0.9*34.47*1000*100^2*ω*(1-0.59*ω)
ω = 0.0577
Asmin = 0.0018*125*1000 = 225mm2 < 720mm2, therefore use 720mm2 per 1m strip
Therefore, use 10mm @ 100mm spacing top bar and bottom bar both ways for slab is OK.
