2. R.C. Slabs 2.1 Types of Slab Slabs are plate elements forming floors and roofs in buildings which normally carry uniformly distributed loads. Slabs may be simply supported or continuous over supports. Slabs can be classified as: One-way spanning slabs supported by beams or walls. The slabs can be simply supported or continuous as shown in Figure 2.1(a) & (b). In drawing, one-way spanning slab is shown as . Figure 2.2 shows a typical one-way spanning slab. Two-way spanning slab supported by beams or walls. Two-way spanning slabs can be simply supported or continuous as shown in Figure 2.3. In drawing, two-way spanning slab is shown as Ribbed is shown in Figure 2.4. Waffle slabs are shown in Figure 2.5, Photo 2.1, 2.2 & 2.3. Flat slabs carried on columns and edge beams or walls with no interior beams (see Figure 2.6, Figure 2.7, Photo 2.4 and 2.5).

2.2 Design of Two-way Spanning Solid Slab When floor slabs are supported on four sides two-way spanning action occurs as shown in Figure 2.8. In square slabs, the action is equal in each direction. In narrow slabs where the length is greater than twice the breath the action is effectively one way. However the end beams always carry some slab load.

Two-way slabs may be classified according to the edge conditions. They can be defined as follows: Simply supported one panel slabs where the corners can lift away from the supports. A one panel slab held down on four sides by integral edge beams (the stiffness of the edge beam affects the slab design) Slabs with all edges continuous over supports A slab with one, two or three edges continuous over supports - the discontinuous edge(s) may be simply supported or held down by integral edge beams (see Figure 2.9)

2.2.1 Two-way Spanning Simply Supported Slabs The design of simply supported slabs may be made in accordance with HK Code, Cl.6.1.3.3. This cl. gives the following equations for max. moment msx and msy at mid-span on strips of unit width for spans lx and ly respectively, where lx is the length of shorter span, ly is the length of the longer span, n = 1.4gk + 1.6qk per unit area and sx, sy are the moment coeff. from Table 6.55 of the code. msx = sxn lx2, msy = syn lx2

Chapter 2

Distribution Steel The distribution steel runs at right angles to the main moment steel and serves the purpose of tying the slab together. The area of distribution steel is the same as the min. area for main reinforcement (i.e. 0.13%) and the distribution reinforcement of not less than 20% of the principal reinforcement should be provided.
Shear Reinforcement (For fcu = 40 N/mm2) Under normal loads shear stresses are not critical and shear reinforcement is normally not required. Shear reinforcement is provided in heavily loaded thick slabs but should not be used in slabs less than 200 mm thick.
In design, the average shear stress v is given by v = V/bd The design procedures for slab are essentially the same as that for beams. However, in the design of slab in shear, the following points should be noted. i) v should not exceed 0.8 f cu or 7 N/mm2 whichever is less. ii) If v < vc, then no shear reinforcement is required. iii) If vc < v (vc + 0.4), then provide min. links as:Asv 0.4b sv 0.87 f yv
iv) if v > (vc + 0.4), provide shear links as Asv (v vc )b sv 0.87 f yv

Deflection In slab design, deflections are usually controlled by limiting the span/effective depth ratio.
i)
Basic span/effective depth ratio (Table 7.3):Cantilever slab 7 Simply supported slabs 20 Continuous slabs 26 End Span 23
For deflection control, it is necessary to check the span/effective depth ratio of the shorter span.
i)
The basic span/effective depth ratio is multiplied by a modification factor for tension reinforcement (Table 7.4). Only the tension steel at the centre of span is taken into account. Determination of the allowable span/effective depth ratio. Allowable l/d ratio = Basic l/d ratio * M.F for tension reinforcement. Determination of the actual span/effective depth ratio. Actual l/d ratio = (Actual span) / (Effective depth) If allowable l/d ratio actual l/d ratio, Deflection O.K. If allowable l/d ratio < actual l/d ratio, Deflection NOT O.K. (Redesign the slab)
ii)
iii)
iv) v)
Crack Control To control cracking in slabs, max. values for clear spacing between bars are set out in HK Code, Cl.9.3.1.1 (b). The maximum spacing of bars should comply with the following requirements: For the principal reinforcement, 3h 400 mm; and For the secondary reinforcement, 3.5h 450 mm.
In areas with concentrated loads or areas of maximum moment those provisions become respectively: For the principal reinforcement, 2h 250 mm; and For the secondary reinforcement, 3h 400 mm.
Chapter 2
12
In addition, unless crack widths are checked by direct calculation, the following rules will ensure adequate control of cracking for slabs subjected to normal internal and external environments: No further check is required on bar spacing if either: h 250 mm (grade 250 steel) h 200 mm (grade 460 steel) or the percentage of required tension reinforcement (100As / bd) is less than 0.3%. Where none of these three conditions apply, the bar spacings should be limited to the values calculated in cl. 9.2.1.4 which will NOT be covered here.

Example 2.1 Two-Way Spanning Simply Supported Slab
Figure 2.11 shows a simply supported slab 220 mm thick and spanning in two directions. The effective span in each direction of a two-way spanning slab is 4.5 m and 6.3 m. The slab supports a live load of 10 kN/m2. Design the bending and shear reinforcement for the slab. Check the adequacy of the slab section against deflection by span-effective depth ratio approach. The characteristic material strengths are fcu = 35 N/mm2 and fy = 460 N/mm2. Nominal cover = 25 mm.

2.2.2
Restrained Two-way Spanning Solid Slabs2
2.2.2.1 Design and Arrangement of Reinforcement The design method for restrained slabs is given in HK Code Cl.6.1.3.3(c). In these slabs the corners are prevented from lifting and provision is made for torsion. The maximum moments at mid-span on strips of unit width for spans lx and ly are given by:
msx = sx n l x
2 2
msy = sy n l x
The moment coefficients sx and sy in the equations above are given in HK Code Table 6.65. The clause states that these equations may be used for continuous slabs when the following provisions are satisfied. The characteristic dead and imposed loads are approximately the same on adjacent panels as on the panel being considered. The spans of adjacent panels in the direction perpendicular to the line of the common support are approximately the same as that of the panel considered in that direction.

The design rules for restrained TWO-WAY slabs are as follows: The slabs are divided in each direction into middle and edge strips as shown in Figure 2.12. The maximum moments defined above applied to the middle strip. The bars are spaced uniformly across the middle strip. At the discontinuous edge, it is a usual practice to have the top steel equals to one-half the area of the bottom steel at mid-span to be provided to control cracking. The minimum tension reinforcement is to be provided in the edge strip together with the torsion reinforcement specified below. Torsion reinforcement is to be provided at corners where the slab is simply supported on both edges meeting at the corners. Corner X and Y shown in Figure 2.13 require torsion reinforcement. This consists of a top and bottom mesh with bars parallel to the sides of the slab and extending from the edges a distance of ONE-FIFTH of the shorter span. The area of bars in each of the four layers should be, at X, THREE-QUARTERS of the area of bars required for the maximum mid-span moment and, at Y, ONE-HALF of the area of the bars required at corner X. Note that no torsion reinforcement is required at the internal corners Z.

2.2.2.2 Adjacent Panels with Markedly Different Support Moments.
The moment coefficients in Table 6.65 of the code apply to slabs with similar spans and loads giving similar support moments. If the support moments for adjacent panels differ significantly, adjustment by means of moment distribution is required. The detailed procedures are given in cl. 6.1.3.3 (e) of the code. An example can be found in ref. 3. Detailed description will not be given here.
2.2.2.3 Loads on Supporting Beams of Two-way Slabs
Shear force coefficients vx and vy for various support cases for continuous slabs are given in Table 6.75 of the code. The design loads on supporting beams per unit width are given by:
Vsx = vx n l x Vsy = vy n l x
The load distribution on a beam supporting a two-way slab is shown in Figure 2.14.

2.3 Ribbed Slabs2 Ribbed slabs are more economical than solid slabs for long spans with relatively light loads. Two principal methods of construction are:
Ribbed slabs without permanent blocks Ribbed slabs with permanent hollow or solid blocks The topping or concrete floor panels between ribs may or may not be considered to contribute to the strength of the slab. The hollow or solid blocks may also be counted in assessing the strength using the rules given in the code. The design of slabs with topping taken into account but without permanent blocks is discussed here.
2.3.1 Ribbed Slab Proportions Proportions for ribbed slabs without permanent blocks are given in Clause 6.1.4 of the code.
In situ ribs should be spaced at centers not exceeding 1.5m. The depth of rib, excluding any topping should not exceed four times their width. The minimum width of rib will be determined by considerations of cover, bar spacing and fire resistance requirements. From practical point of view, the minimum rib width is 125 mm. The minimum thickness of topping shall not be less than 50 mm or one-tenth of clear distance between ribs whichever is greater.

Design Procedure and Reinforcement

Table 6.4 Ultimate Bending Moment and Shear Forces in One-Way Spanning Slab5 2.3.2.2 Bending The mid-span of a ribbed slab shall be designed as a T-beam, to resist sagging moment, with flange width determined in accordance with cl. 5.2.1.2 (a). At the support, the ribbed slab shall be designed as a rectangular section to resist the hogging moment. Moment reinforcement consisting of one or more bars is provided in the top and bottom of the ribs. 2.3.2.3 Shear The design of shear reinforcement is similar to that of solid slabs. 2.3.2.4 Reinforcement in the Topping A single layer of welded steel fabric, having a cross-sectional area of not less than 0.12% of the topping, shall be provided in each direction. The spacing between wires should not be greater than half the center-to-center distance between ribs.

Example 2.3 Design of Ribbed Slab
The ribbed floor is constructed without permanent blocks. It is continuous over several equal spans of 5.5 m. The effective section is shown in Figure 2.17. The characteristic dead load including self-weight and finishes is 4.5 kN/m2 and the characteristic imposed load is 3 kN/m2. Grade 35 concrete and grade 460 steel are used for the design. Design the end span of the ribbed slab.

Q1.
A simply supported R.C. slab 175 mm thick is spanning in two directions. The effective span in each direction of the two-way spanning slab is 4 m and 5 m. The slab supports the following loading:Characteristic Dead Load Self-weight 20 mm thick finishes (unit weight = 20 kN/m3) Ceiling load = 0.5 kN/m2 Partition = 1.0 kN/m2 Characteristic Imposed Load = 5 kN/m2 Design the bending and shear reinforcement for the slab. Check the adequacy of the slab section against deflection by span-effective depth ratio approach. The characteristic material strengths are fcu = 35 N/mm2 and fy = 460 N/mm2. Nominal cover = 30 mm. Main bars assumed to be 10 mm.
Q2.
The continuous two-way spanning slabs in Figure Q2 are 150 mm thick and are restrained by integral beams. Design the slab groups 1, 2, 3 & 4. The slabs are subjected to loading as in Q1. The characteristic material strengths are fcu = 35 N/mm2 and fy = 460 N/mm2. Nominal cover = 25 mm. Main bars assumed to be 10 mm.
Q3.
A four-span R.C. ribbed slab, with spans of 6.5 m, has an effective section as shown in Figure Q3. The ribbed slab is constructed without permanent blocks. The slab is subjected to the following loadings:Characteristic Dead Load Self-weight 25 mm thick finishes (unit weight = 20 kN/m3) Services = 0.75 kN/m2 Partition load = 1.0 kN/m2 Characteristic Imposed Load = 3 kN/m2 Grade 35 concrete and grade 460 steel are used for the design. Nominal cover = 30 mm. Design the four-span ribbed slab.

Q5.
A slab 250 mm thick is constructed with grade 35 concrete and is reinforced with T12-200 c/c in one direction and T12-300 c/c in the other direction. Determine the maximum load that can be carried on an area 300 * 300 mm, without the exceeding the ultimate shear stress. Nominal cover = 25 mm
Q6.
A 250 mm thick slab of grade 35 concrete is reinforced with T12-200 c/c in one direction and T12-300 c/c in the other direction. The slab is subjected to an ultimate concentrated load of 600 kN over a square area of 300*300 mm. Determine the shear reinforcement required for fyv = 250 N/mm2 and the nominal cover to reinforcement = 25 mm.
