Roof Slab Design Example

Plan view of a reinforced concrete pitched inclined slab.

Roof slab design example.

Q the length and breadth of slab is 10 meter and 7 meter respectively. Some of the prominent examples of the one way slabs are the cantilever slabs chajjas and verandahs. Steel yield strength fy 40 ksi. Slabs s1 and s2 to be designed.

One method of overcoming this problem is to use ribbed slabs which are suitable for longer spans supporting light loading as in residential or commercial buildings. Design the floor to satisfy ultimate and serviceability limit state requirements. 2 thick brick tile. Advances of computational fluid dynamics in nuclear reactor design and safety assessment 2019 related terms.

Live load 40 psf figure 1. Let the shorter span has provided the main rod and longer span has provided distribution rod. Design example the layout of a floor slab is shown in figure 1 below. Design the roof slab beam and column of house given in figure 1.

Beside this the slab has following information for main bars length of on rod 7 meter diameter 12 mm. Concrete compressive strength fc 3 ksi. The shorter span of one way slab is provided with the main reinforcement while the longer span is provided with the distribution reinforcement. Let us take an example of a slab.
