Question

A simply supported one-way floor slab with clear span of 3.5 m and with thickness of 150 mm is loaded with 5 kN/m service dead load and 3 kN/m service live load, none of the live load can be considered as sustained. Investigate the deflection if the slab is not supporting or attached to any nonstructural construction likely to be damaged by large deflection. Use f c   30MPa
