Moment and Reinforcement Calculations Since the ribs span in one direction , maximum moment will 2 occur at mid-span and will be equal to w rl /8 Maximum moment Mmax = kNm

Reinforcement Calculations (Cl 3.4.4.4;BS8110;Part1;1997) Moment coefficient K = M/(bfd2fcu) = Since K< 0.156, therefore no compression reinforcement is required. Lever arm , Z = d[.5+sqrt{(.25-(K/.9)}] Since d-z =(357-339)=18 < hf/2, Neutral Axis lies within flange and beam is designed with b=b f Area of steel required, As req = M/0.95*fy*z where fy = 425N/mm2 Minimum reinforcement A s min is equal to .15%bh and is less than that required.

Deflection Check (Cl 3.4.6;BS8110;Part1;1997) Basic span to effective depth ratio for a flanged rib beam, simply supported is obtained from Table 3.9 of BS8110;Part1;1997 bw/b =

For bw/b less or equal to 0.3, the basic l/d ratio for a simply supported flanged beam = Modification factor (Cl 3.4.6.6 BS8110;Part1;1997) The design service stress in tension reinforcement in a member may be obtained from the equation given below fs = 2*fy*As req/(3*As prov )

N/mm

Modification factor , M.F. is obtained from the formula given below 2 MF = .55 + (477-fs)/[120+(.9+M/bd )] =

Permissible span to effective depth ratio is equal to the basic span to effective ratio multiplied by the modification factor Therefore, Permissible l/d = Actual span to effective depth ratio, =

Since Permissible span to effective depth ratio is greater than actual span to effective depth ratio, therefore beam satisfies deflection criteria
