FOOTING
Never assume the soil bearing capacity and at least have one
trial pit to get the real site bearing capacity value.
Check the Factor of Safety used by the Geotechnical engineer for
finding the SBC.
FOLDED PLATE:
The typical depth /span ratio is in the range from 1/15 to 1/10.
FLATE PLATE:
A typical depth of a solid FLAT PLATE is 1/22 -1/18 of the effective
span.
TWO-WAY RIBBED SLAB:
Supported on continuous stiff supports are in the range of 1/301/25 of
the lesser effective span.
FLAT PLATE RIBBED SLAB:
Typical depth of flat plate ribbed slabs are in the range of 1/201/17
of the lesser effective span.
DOMES:
The structural depth of DOMES is the full height of the dome from
base
to crown. Depth to span ratio range from as low as 1/8 for shallow
domes
to for deep domes.
A depth /span ratio of 1/5-1/4 is a common value which is near
optimal
for many applications.

IMPORTANCE OF DETAILING OF TRANSVERSE REINFORCEMENT FOR
BEAMS,COLUMNS AND
WALLS
The detailing of reinforcement is as important as the analysis and
design
of any RCC members. Specially it is true in the design of structures
against the SEISMIC forces. The most and very important aspect of
detailing is well documented in the text book on SEISMIC DESIGN
OF
REINFORCED CONCRETE AND MASONRY BUILDINGS by T.Paulay and
M.J.N.Priestley.
The text extraction is given below for the structural engineers who
need
the tie, including the tributary area of any bars exempted from
being tied
in accordance
with the proceding section.
Ate is the area of the stirrup tie in mm^2.
fy is the yield strength of longitudinal bars.
fyt is the yield strength of tie bars
that
control the amount of transverse reinforcement to be provided in
COLUMNS:
1.
Shear strength;
2.
Prevention of buckling of compression bars;
3.
Confinement of compressed concrete in potential plastic
hinge
regions or over the full length of column subjected to very large
compression stresses and;
4.
The strength of lapped bar splices.
