Question

Design a one-way slab of 5m x 6m size to carry a floor finish load of 3 kN/m² and a superimposed dead load of 7 kN/m². The grade of concrete used is M20 and the steel used is Fe415. Take the clear span of slab as 5m.

Expert Solution
Step 1: Given Data about the problem

Finish load, FL = 3 kN/m² 

Superimposed dead load, DL = 7 kN/m². grade of concrete = M20

steel = Fe415

 clear span of slab,L = 5m.
