Example 6.1 - Slab-Simply Supported (One-Way)

This document provides the design specifications and calculations for a simply supported one-way reinforced concrete slab. The slab is 4.25 meters long and supported on both ends. It must support a permanent load of 1 kN/m^2 and variable load of 3 kN/m^2. The slab thickness is designed as 175mm thick with grade C30 concrete and grade 500 reinforcement. Reinforcement and shear calculations are provided to verify the slab design meets code requirements for strength, serviceability, cracking, and fire resistance.

Simply Supported One Way Slab

A rectangular reinforced concrete slab is simply supported on two masonry walls 250mm
thick and 4.0m apart (clear distance). The slab has to carry a distributed permanent action
of 1.0kN/m2 (excluding slab self-weight) and a variable action of 3.0kN/m2. The materials to
be used are grade C30 concrete and grade 500 reinforcement. The slab is outside building
which subjected to 1 hour fire resistance and design for 50 years design life. Design the slab.
