Design Calculations
Output
Design of Slab Panel –Between Grids A/B and 1/2) Assume a slab thickness of a 162.5mm. Top and bottom cover to reinforcement is 25mm.
Effective depth Short way
=162.5-25-10/2=132.5mm
Long way
=162.5-25-10-10/2=122.5mm
Loading 2
Self-weight
=0.1625x24=3.9kN/m
Finishes
=1kN/m
Imposed load
=1.5kN/m
So the design load
=1.4x(3.9+1)+1.6x1.5=9.26kN/m

Bending moments ly/lx=7.470/5.570=1.34<2(Hence the slab panel is two-way spanning). Type of slab panel-Two adjacent edges discontinuous Table 3.14
Maximum spacing = 3x132.5 =397.5mm Hence maximum spacing is not violated.
