DESING OF SLAB

Slab is a structural element, made of concrete, that is used to create flat horizontal surfaces such
as floors, roof decks and ceilings. A slab is generally several inches thick and supported by beams,
columns, walls, or the ground.

After analyzing a lot of moments of the different slabs, my critical slab is the one long edge
discontinuous having the long span of 5.8m and one short edge discontinuous, have span 4.7m.

L x = short span 4.7m j= 0.8

l y = long span =5.8m k= 0.138

f ck = 20 Mpa f y = 415Mpa

Wl= 3kn/ m 2

Let the depth of the slab be assumed (h)=120mm=0.12m

w g =¿ 0.12×1 ×25=3 kn /m 2

Live load w l= 3KN/m 2
