Moment due to edge slab spanning depression; Mmax_total_ecc_corn = max(Mx_total_ecc_corn, My_total_ecc_corn) = 2.2 kNm/m
Assume all of this moment is resisted by edge slab
Total moment to be resisted; MEd_total_brg_corn = Mmax_total_ecc_corn + Mtotal_edge = 27.3 kNm/m
Kt_brg_corn = MEd_total_brg_corn / (dmin_t_edge2 fck) = 0.024
K' = (2 cc / C) (1 - ( - k1) / (2 k2)) ( ( - k1) / (2 k2)) =

Lever arm; zt_brg_corn = min(0.5 dmin_t_edge [1 + (1 - 2 Kt_brg_corn / ( cc / C))0.5],
0.95 dmin_t_edge) = 190 mm
Minimum area of reinforcement required; As,min_t_brg_corn = max(0.26 fctm / fyk, 0.0013) dmin_t_edge = 288 mm2/m
Area of tension reinforcement required; As,req_t_brg_corn = MEd_total_brg_corn / (fyd zt_brg_corn) = 331 mm2/m
PASS - Area of reinforcement provided exceeds area of reinforcement required
Applied forces
Span of slab; lcorn = dep_slab / (2) + dmin_t_slab / 2 = 1762 mm
Ultimate self weight UDL; wult_corn = 1.35 wedge dep_slab / (2) = 13.7 kN/m
Self weight and slab bending moment; Msw_corn = wult_corn lcorn2 / (6 dep_slab / (2)) = 4.3 kNm/m
Self weight and slab shear force; Vsw_corn = wult_corn lcorn/ (2 dep_slab / (2)) = 7.3 kN/m
