Reinforced Concrete Slab Design
Reinforced Concrete Slab Design
(OP)
Hi Everyone,
Need help with analysis of a reinforced concrete slab. Does anyone have a quick reference for calculating the strength&deflection of various concrete slabs. Preferably a computer program as well. Thank you.

1) A lot of minimum and maximum steel quantities are different (ACI 318) since it is spread out and usually done both ways.
2) Stirrups are not used.
3) If it is a two way slab, drum effect can be used to decrease the required strength.
These are fairly basic slab design issues. And they involve very little math (no computer program required). Although you may want to use software for the beam analysis portion.
If you don't know enough about these subjects or simple rectangular concrete beam analysis, I think you need someone first hand to teach you about them.
