3. Find the reinforcements for the mid span and supports for an interior 8 in. thick slab (S-2) in the floor from Problem 1. Ignore the beams and assume that the slab is supported by columns only. Sketch the slab and show the reinforcements including the shrinkage and temperature reinforcement steel. Use fc’ = 4,000 psi and fy = 60,000 psi.

cannot support compressive forces.
The single degree of freedom (SDOF) system the acceleration at the base (excitation) and the acceleration at the roof (response) of the SDOF system was recorded with sampling rate 50 Hz (50 samples per second, or dt= 0.02 seconds). The file ElCentro.txt includes the two columns of acceleration data. The first column lists the acceleration at the base of the SDOF system. The second column lists the acceleration at the roof of the SDOF system. (a) Plot the time histories of the recorded accelerations at the base and at the roof of the SDOF system. (b) Compute the acceleration, velocity and displacement time histories of the roof of the SDOF system subjected to the recorded base acceleration using the Central Difference method. Plot the accel- eration, velocity and displacement time histories. Plot the restoring force, the damping force, and the inertia force time histories. Compare the recorded acceleration time history at the roof of the SDOF with the acceleration that you computed…
