hi all
how can you calculate the deflection in a waffle slab or the two way system? is there any ACI reference? i have the system shown in the link below and i want to establish the depth of the waffle or two way system based on deflection requirments

thank you in advance

Then you will have to add the effects of cracking, redistribution, shrinkage and creep. These effects could increase your deflections by a factor of 5 to 10 depending on mconditions so they are very important.
Do not believe the numbers from your FE software alone.
RE: hi all how can you calculate the
Few people properly model the cracking effects of concrete they run a FEM of concrete. I've often found good old horse sense works best when analyzing concrete. Be careful with FEM of concrete. I've seen in done wrong more times that correctly.
