A 175 mm thick continuous slab is required to support screed, nishes,

an ofce variable action of 2.5 kN/m2 and demountable partitions
(@ 2 kN/m). The slab is supported on 200 mm wide load-bearing block
walls at 6000 mm centres. fck = 30, fyk = 500 and the design life is
50 years. A re resistance of 1 hour is required.

qk = 3.3 kN/m2
gk = 5.9 kN/m2
