Figure 52. Slab S-2 Section

Design Parameters:
Short Side A = 5.00 m Long Side B =5.00 m

fc’ = 21 MPa fy = 414 MPa

ɸ = 0.9 𝛃 = 0.85

Concrete cover = 20mm using 12 mm rebar

Solving for ratio of m:

A 5.00
m= = =1.00>0.5 Therefore, two-way Slab
B 5.00

The computed value for span ratio (short span divided by long span) is equal to

1.00 is greater than 0.5, therefore the slab design is a two-way slab.

Solving for minimum thickness:

NSCP 2015, Section 408.3.1.1 Minimum Thickness Non-Prestressed Two-Way

Slab.

2( A +B)(1000) 2(5+5)(1000)
h= = =111.11mm use h = 150 mm
180 180

Computing for effective depth:

d1 = h - concrete cover - rebar diameter

d1 = 150 mm - 20 mm - 12 mm = 118 mm

d2 = h - concrete cover - rebar diameter - ½ rebar diameter

d2 = 150 mm - 20 mm - 12 mm - ½ (12 mm) = 112 mm

Dead load:

Slab-self weight = 3.15 kPa

Floor Finish = 1.1 kPa

Mech Duct Allowance = 0.2 kPa

Miscellaneous loads = 1 kPa

Total: 5.69 kPa

Live Loads: Total: Public Access = 12 kPa

Factored Loads:

WUDL = 1.2 DL = 1.2 (5.69) = 6.83 kPa

WULL = 1.6 LL = 1.6 (12) = 19.2 kPa

WU = WUDL + WULL = 6.83 + 19.2 = 26.03 kPa

Solving for Moments

Considering one meter strip of the slab, slab moments were computed using

moment coefficients, C. For short span the moment calculated is shown below.

S < Smax; Therefore, use S= 150 mm,

Based on the calculated spacing (S) of 150 mm is lower than the maximum

allowable spacing, it is recommended to use a spacing of 150 mm. This indicates that

for a one-meter, short span, middle strip of the slab S-2, bars with a diameter of 12 mm

should be placed with the spacing of 150 mm.
