Problem H05-03. One-way reinforced-concrete slab design [Points: 1/5].
Design a balcony slab of a residential house exposed to the weather. Observe how the moment diagram of the balcony is "scared-cat shape through-and-through". The cantilevered span is 8ft long and the service live load from residential house. Snow load is S=30lbfft2 and self-weight of the slab must be dead load D. Apply Load Combinations 2,3, and 4 only. Use steel reinforcement no greater than #6 size bars, and no smaller than #3; fc'=4,000lbfin2;fy=60,000lbfin2. Density of the concrete is c=100lbfft3. Sketch the design. Exploit the instructor spreadsheet calculator posted in D2L to speed up the numerical calculations.
Hint*: Recall Example L08-02 of the 'L08- Concrete Flexion II' handout. Review slides 23-26 of 'L03 External Loads' handout to obtain the live load L intensity of residential houses. Consider the house as a residential living area. Operate the steps demarcated in the 'Design of One-Way Slab' algorithm of Example L08-02.
