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.
