Question: Problem 3 : A four - span one - way slab is supported on 1 2 - in - wide beams with center - to

Problem 3:
A four-span one-way slab is supported on 12-in-wide beams with center-to-center spacing of 14,16,16,14 ft. The slab has a superimposed dead load of 20 psf and a live load of 100 psf. f'c =3500 psi and fy =60,000 psi
Sketch a segment of this floor plan showing the beam strip.
Select initial slab thickness to meet the minimum required thicknesses in ACI 318-19,7.3.1.1
Using ACI coefficients, calculate critical shear and moment values (positive and negative) along the slab strip length.
Design the slab reinforcement based on the largest negative and largest positive moments. Check ACI
requirements of strength, tension-controlled, minimum steel, bar spacing.
Check shear capacity.
Include temperature and shrinkage steel.
Sketch a cross-section of the slab showing the slab strip along its length showing location of reinforcement.
