- WORKING STRESS DESIGN

The floor frame shown supports the following: = 100 mm thickness

o Slab o Super imposed o Live Load

Dead

Load

= 3 kPa (includes floor finish, ceiling fixtures, etc.)

= 4.8 kPa

Beam Properties:

. lc =2LMPa . fs = 124 Mpa . n =10 o Weight of concrete = 24OO kg / m3 . assume b between h/L.75lo hlz
Note:

o Use the Equivalent Uniform Load (EUL) {bose d on Yield Line Theory} . I represents a reinforced concrete column o Assume Live Load on all span .
Design the span EF as beam reinforced for tension only.

TRAPEZOIDAT LOAD

o W = uniformly distributed load in kPa o $ = length of short span in m. . m = ratio of the short span over long span (m = S/L)
Condition: lf m > 0.50 use this EUL method for a two way slab distribution; otherwise use the one way slab distribution.
