Trench Design

This document provides the design of a reinforced concrete cable trench for an MCC room. It includes calculations for the design of the side walls and base of the trench. For the side walls, the required area of steel is calculated as 5.1 cm2 and 10 mm diameter bars provided at 150 mm centers are determined to be adequate. For the base, the required steel is calculated as 1.3 cm2 and 8 mm diameter bars provided at 250 mm centers are sufficient. Distribution steel of 8 mm diameter bars at 250 mm centers is also specified.
