Figure 2 -Two-way slab on simple edge supports and showing bending of center
strips of the slab
When the ratio of the long span lb to the short span la as shown
in the above figure is less than 2, the panel is a two-way slab
TWO-WAY SLAB DESIGN
Figure 2 shows that the deflected surface
becomes one of double curvature or dished
surface which means that the load is carried in
both directions to the four edge supports around
the panel. This means that any point on the slab is
curved in both principal directions, and since
bending moments are proportional to curvatures,
moments also exist in both directions.
Therefore analysis of bending moments due to
loads, in the 2 principal directions (x and y) must be
made

and not less than 0.090 m. and not less than 0.125 m
m is the average value of for all beams on the edges of
a given panel.
= ratio of clear span in long direction to clear span in
short direction
fy = yield strength of reinforcement bar
ln = clear span in long direction, mm
A convenient parameter that defines the relative stiffness
of the beam and slab spanning in either direction is
= Ecb Ib/Ecs Is
where:
Ecb and Ecs are the moduli of elasticity of the beam and the
slab, usually the same because of monolithic construction
