Lecture 2

One-way slabs are defined as slabs where the longer to shorter side ratio is at least 2.0, leading to deflection primarily in the short direction. The design involves determining minimum thickness, reinforcement ratios, and load assignments, following ACI codes for flexural and shrinkage reinforcement. The design procedure includes selecting design strips, calculating loads, and ensuring adequate shear and moment resistance.

ONE-WAY SLAB

1
Introduction

One-way slabs:
When the ratio of the longer to the shorter side (L/ S) of the
slab is at least equal to 2.0, it is called one-way slab. Under the
action of loads, it is deflected in the short direction only, in a
cylindrical form. Therefore, main reinforcement is placed in
the shorter direction, while the longer direction is provided
with shrinkage reinforcement to limit cracking. When the slab
is supported on two sides only, the load will be transferred to
these sides regardless of its longer span to shorter span ratio,
and it will be classified as one-way slab.

Minimum Thickness

To control deflection, ACI Code 9.5.2.1 specifies minimum


thickness values for one-way solid slabs, shown in Table.

where l is the span length in the direction of bending.

Design Concept
One-way solid slabs are designed as a number of independent 1 m wide
strips which span in the short direction and supported on crossing beams.

Maximum Reinforcement Ratio


One-way solid slabs are designed as rectangular sections subjected to
shear and moment. Thus, the maximum reinforcement ratio ρmax is
not to exceed
0.75 b and As max  0.75 Asb

Shrinkage Reinforcement Ratio

According to ACI Code 7.12.2.1 and for steels yielding at fy = 420 Mpa OR
f y  4200 kg / cm2, the shrinkage reinforcement is taken not less than 0.0018 of
the gross concrete area, or As shrinkage  0.0018 b h 7
where, b = width of strip, and h = slab thickness.
Minimum Reinforcement Ratio

According to ACI Code 10.5.4, the minimum flexural reinforcement is


not to be less than the shrinkage reinforcement, or
As min  0.0018 b h
Spacing Of Flexural Reinforcement Bars

Flexural reinforcement is to be spaced not greater than three times the


slab thickness, nor greater apart than 45 cm, center-to-center.

Spacing Of Shrinkage Reinforcement Bars


Shrinkage reinforcement is to be spaced not greater than five times the
slab thickness, nor greater apart than 45 cm, center-to-center.

(2) Weight of slab covering materials:

- Sand fill with a thickness of about 5 cm,

0.05  1.80 t/m 2


-Cement mortar, 2.5 cm thick.
0.025  2.10 t/m 2

- Tiling
0.025  2.30 t/m 2
-A layer of plaster about 2 cm in thickness.
0.02  2.10 t/m 2

(4) Equivalent Partition Weight:

This load is usually taken as the weight of all walls carried by


the slab divided by the floor area and treated as a dead load
rather than a live load.

Loads Assigned to Beams


The beams are usually designed to carry the following loads:
- Their own weights.
- Weights of partitions applied directly on them.
- Floor loads.
The floor loads on beams supporting the slab in the shorter direction
may be assumed uniformly distributed throughout their spans.

Approximate Structural Analysis
ACI Code 8.3.3 permits the use of the following approximate moments and
shears for design of continuous beams and one-way slabs, provided:

1. Positive Moment:
a. End Spans:
􀂃 When discontinuous end unrestrained, M u  wu ln / 11
2

􀂃 When discontinuous end is integral with support, M u  wu ln2 / 14


where ln is the corresponding clear span length
b. Interior Spans:
􀂃 M u  wu ln2 / 16

2. Negative Moment:

a. Negative moment at exterior face of first interior support:


􀂃 Two spans, 12
M u  wu ln / 9
2
􀂃 More than two spans, M u  wu ln2 / 10
where ln is the average of adjacent clear span lengths.
b. Negative moment at other faces of interior supports:
􀂃 M u  wu ln2 / 11
c. Negative moment at interior face of exterior support:
􀂃 Support is edge beam, M u  wu ln2 / 24
􀂃 Support is a column, M u  wu ln2 / 16
3. Shear:
a. Shear in end members at face of first interior support:
􀂃 Vu  1,15wuln / 2
b. Shear at face of all other supports:
􀂃 Vu  wuln / 2
where ln is the corresponding clear span length.

Summary of One-way Solid Slab Design Procedure
Once design compressive strength of concrete and yield stress of
reinforcement are specified, the next steps are followed:
1. Select representative 1 m wide design strip/strips to span in the short
direction.
2. Choose a slab thickness to satisfy deflection control requirements.
When several numbers of slab panels exist, select the largest calculated
thickness.
3. Calculate the factored load Wu by magnifying service dead and live loads
according to this equation Wu = 1.2 Wd + 1.6 Wl .
4. Draw the shear force and bending moment diagrams for each of the strips.
5. Check adequacy of slab thickness in terms of resisting shear by satisfying
the following equation:

6. Design flexural and shrinkage reinforcement:
Flexural reinforcement ratio is calculated from the following equation:

Make sure that the reinforcement ratio is not larger than ¾ ρb


Compute the area of shrinkage reinforcement, where As min  0.0018 b h
Select appropriate bar numbers and diameters for both, main and secondary
reinforcement.
Check reinforcement spacing, modify your bar selection if needed.
7. Draw a plan of the slab and representative cross sections showing the
dimensions and the selected reinforcement.
