Question: 5 . 8 A square two - way slab is fixed on all edges and loaded by a uniformly distributed pressure which is applied suddenly

5.8 A square two-way slab is fixed on all edges and loaded by a uniformly distributed pressure which is applied suddenly with an intensity of 1kipft2 and which then decays linearly to zero at 0.2 sec. The slab properties are:
Span =20ft
Weight =100lbft2
Ic=40in.in4ft
Ec=3106lbin2
Bending moment: MPa=MPfb=MPsa=MPsb=2000kip-in.
Using the appropriate transformation factors, compute the maximum central deflection:
a. By the response chart (Fig.2.24),(PICTUREOF FIGURE IS ATTACHED.) based on an average load-mass factor and an effective stiffness.
b. By numerical integration, taking into account all three stress ranges.
