In this video, we dive deep into the analysis and design of two-way reinforced concrete slabs, offering a detailed guide for civil and structural engineers.
Key Points Covered:
Slab Thickness and Serviceability
Load and Thickness Calculations
Minimum Thickness for Flat Slabs and Beam-Supported Slabs
Two-Way Joist Slabs
Serviceability requirements for minimum depth
Panel Division for Analysis
Critical Sections for Shear
Locations of critical sections for flat plates, flat slabs, and slabs with drop panels or shear caps
Determination of factored shear stresses and critical section properties.
Direct Design Method
Strength Requirements and Shear Forces
In the next video, we will explore the calculation of bending and shear strengths of two-way slabs, including the determination of required flexural and shear reinforcements. Additionally, we will cover recommended reinforcement details and other reinforcement requirements set by the ACI.
