Waffle Slab Design Example

Waffle Slab Design Example

Waffle Slab Design Example

(OP)
I would really appreciate it if somebody would post a link or a document that showcases an example of a complete waffle slab (two-way joist slab) design. I have found several links online but they almost all explain how to figure out the dimensions with little mention of the reinforcement. Thanks in advance.

RE: Waffle Slab Design Example

Your best bet, in my opinion, would be to get your hands on a CRSI design manual. If you're committed to an Internet freebie, this seems to go into some detail: Link.

I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.

RE: Waffle Slab Design Example

Thanks for the advice. I got my hands on the tenth edition of the CRSI Design Manual. I will be reading chapter 11 of it; waffle slab design. It's a good place to start. If I have any questions, I'll be back. Thanks again.

RE: Waffle Slab Design Example

The best book to refer to is 'Reinforced Concrete Design to Eurocode' by Bill Mosley. This is a must have book for structural engineers. It has got detailed worked example of all cocncete elements, including ribbed and waffle slabs. This gives you complete waffle slab design with rebar detailing and schedules.

Hope this helps
