Design the spacing of the main bars and temperature bars of a one-way slab having a total span of 5 m. The slab is supported with hinge in the left support and a vertical cable located 1.5 m from the right support. The distance between the cables of the slab is 2.3 m. The slab is to carry a live load pressure of 2.4 kPa and a dead load pressure (including self-weight) of 4 kPa. Assume f’c = 27.6 MPa and fy = 276 MPa for main and temperature bars. Use 12 mm ∅ for main bars and 10 mm ∅ for temperature bars. The slab is not exposed to earth or weather. Use thickness of slab of 120 mm. Use NSCP 2001.

Design the spacing of the main bars and temperature bars of a one-way slab
having a total span of 5 m. The slab is supported with hinge in the left support and
a vertical cable located 1.5 m from the right support. The distance between the
cables of the slab is 2.3 m. The slab is to carry a live load pressure of 2.4 kPa and
a dead load pressure (including self-weight) of 4 kPa. Assume f’c = 27.6 MPa and
fy = 276 MPa for main and temperature bars. Use 12 mm ∅ for main bars and 10
mm ∅ for temperature bars. The slab is not exposed to earth or weather. Use
thickness of slab of 120 mm. Use NSCP 2001.
