Design of Slabs: Step (1) Thickness Calculation

The document summarizes the design of a slab with the following key details: 1) The slab has plan dimensions of 12.83 feet by 11.83 feet and a thickness of 5 inches. Total dead and live loads are calculated as 137.5 psf and 40 psf respectively. 2) Moment calculations are performed for short and long directions under total, dead, and live loads. The required depth is determined to be 3.5 inches. 3) Steel reinforcement is calculated for tension and compression regions. For the short direction, 2 #4 bars are needed in tension and 2 #4 bars in compression. For the long direction, 3 #4 bars are needed in tension and 1 #4 bar in

Design of Slabs

Step (1) Thickness calculation


L= 12.83 ft
B= 11.83 ft

Thickness ,t= 3.29


Step (2) load calculation = 5 inch

Dead load:
self wt= 62.5 psf
FF= 25 psf
p.w= 50 psf
Total dead load,wd= 137.5 psf
Total live load,wl= 40 psf

Total load, Wu= 260.5 psf

Step (2) moment calculation

m=B/L 0.92205768
b= 12 in

Short derection

(-ve) moment Mcon. = C (TL) B2 = 2106.98632 lb-ft


(-ve) moment Mdis.con. = C (TL) B2 = 118.117162 lb-ft
(+ve) moment MB= C (DL) B2 = 853.371142 lb-ft
(+ve) moment MB= C (LL) B 2
= 354.351487 lb-ft
Total (+ve) moment = 1207.72263 lb-ft

Long derection
(-ve) moment Mcont. = C (TL) L2 = 1809.80942 lb-ft
(-ve) moment Mdi.con. = C (TL) L2 = 343.639704 lb-ft
(+ve) moment Ml= C (DL) L2 = 725.076545 lb-ft
(+ve) moment MB= C (LL) L2 = 305.842566 lb-ft
Total (+ve) moment = 1030.91911 lb-ft

Step (4) Check for depth:


Maximum moment= 25283.8358 lb-in

ok
so, d = 3.5 in

Long direction
(-ve) As at cont. end , As=ρbd 0.672 sq in 3
(-ve) As at discont. end , As=ρbd 0.19236 sq in 1
(+ve) As , As=ρbd 0.672 sq in 3
