Question: 3 - The 3 . 5 m long 4 0 c m thick cantilever slab shown below is subjected to a live load of 5

3- The 3.5m long 40cm thick cantilever slab shown below is subjected to a live load of 500kgm2 in addition to its dead load and the parapet load of 250kgm at the edge of the slab. Assume concrete grade C50 and steel grade S420, assume that all the reinforcement is sufficiently embedded and the distance from outside the bar center is 40mm.
(i) Design the reinforcement required such that the maximum expected crack width does not exceed 0.3mm under service load (no load factors).
(ii) Estimate the long-term deflection at the tip.
