What are Simply Supported Slabs?
Before we discuss the technical design rules of Simply Supported slabs, lets just go through its definition and learn why they are named so…
As the name suggests, simply supported slabs are supported on columns or stanchions…
Simply supported slabs don’t give adequate provision to resist torsion at corner to prevent corner from lifting.
The maximum bending moment will be given if the slabs are restrained. But atleast 50% of the tension reinforcement provided at the mid span should extend to the support. The remaining 50% should extend to within 0.1Lx or Ly at the support as appropriate.
RCC Slab Design depends on the on the dimensions of the slab after which the slab is termed as a one-way slab or a two-way slab…
In the design of RCC structures, Column Design and Beam Design are to be done before we start with RCC Slab Design…
