1 APPENDIX C Slab Calculation 2 Now try calculating the same slab, with the minimum recommended balanced load of 50% of self-weight. (As opposed to 50% of DL LL used in the first calculation). The same thickness of slab will be used, with the same layout Given:-- 4 bays each way 8000 x 7000 Ult. Load factors 1.0 kpa finish 1.8 kpa partitions 2.5 kpa live load Slab will be protected from weather Assume Internal columns 500 x 500 External columns 300 x 500 Wind loads taken bv shear walls CALCULATION Assume a 210 thick slab. Floor to floor 3.0m DL 1.2 and 1.5 as SABS LL mm Dia cables, low relaxation Breaking Strength KN Area 140 sq. mm. E= 198 GPa Relaxation 1.5% at 1000 hrs Balance 50% of Permanent Load 8.05kPa /2for internal spans For external 8M spans, balance same proportion of load as previously, i.e 80/66x 0.5 =.606 Permanent load From the formula, the slab should be somewhat thicker than 230mm, but take 210 as minimum practicable. COMMENT See diagrams in first part of calculation Formula would give 230 slab then self DL Total perm = Service (1.1) Live load TOTAL 5.25 kpa Factored revised DL 12 factor to allow for extra shear in first int. Check for shear as before, 210 is a bit thin, but acceptable with capitals As contractor has column shutters with capitals, use capitals: For analysis assume E of slab = code value: i.e. ( x 30) = 26.0 GPa From the cross-sections, take the effective top cover as 47mm to C/L cable for 7m span, and ( )/2 = 47mm for 8 m span. As bottom cover is 41 for 8 m span, effective drape mm = 122 mm. For 7m span, drape is =112 mm. (See Diag. Calculation 1) From the diagrams of the cable shapes in the end spans (the cables in centre spans will have the same positions as at the ends of outer spans), the properties of the parabolas may be deduced, and then the losses due to curvature. Referring to the formula in Appendix A, the following table may be calculated, as before. Span 8.0 end 8.0 cent 7.0 end 7.0 cent a l a , b b L m n X cl c Drape CALCULATION Loads to be Balanced: For 8m span, balance x permanent load in external span: For normal external bay 7 x 8.05 x.606 = kn/m For 8 m internal span, balance 0.5 of permanent load i.e. 7 x 8.05 x 5 = kn/m For 7m span, balance 0.50x permanent load in external & internal span. For internal and external bay, 8 x 8.05 x.5 = 32.20kN COMMENT See page 1 For first internal bay, increase cables to allow for increased load at first internal support

The angle which the cable 'rotates' through is also required for the friction calculation. They are calculated from the because of formula for a parabola. larger drape. e.g. for the 8m end span O = Arctan (2 x 78.4/3268.4) x 2 + Arctan( 2 x 113.5/3931.6) x 2 =.2113 Radians The following table shows the calculation results.

An even number is better if stressed from both ends. 8m spans: 2nd span The prestress required to balance kn with drape of.1122 = x = 1627 kn 8 x.1122 Allowing the same losses, P init( = 1984 kn. and no of cables =, = 9.5 cables say 10. Assume that the cables in the end span are taken to 1.5 m past the 1st support, and that half the cables are stressed from each end, the diagrams on the next page may be drawn. Although strictly one should calculate the losses from the exponential equation it is quite acceptable to use a linear method. An even number is better if stressed from both ends.

Three loading cases are needed: Dead load on all spans, Line load on even spans, and live load on odd spans. These may be combined together with the load factors to give the desired bending moments diagrams. Any method of analysis may be used: moment distribution if a computer is not available, or a frame analysis if one is available. The hogging moments for the ultimate limit state may then be reduced by 15%, and the sagging moments increased accordingly to maintain equilibrium. The design moment is at the face of the column or capital, but the the total statically required moment is: W(L-2D/3) /8 If a computer program is used, there is an advantage in arranging a node at 1/3 of the column or capital dimension from the centreline of the column, as the moment at that point will not be less than the moment given for statically required moment.

A construction loading at initial prestress may need to be calculated if the propping is not adequately arranged. Loads due to prestress For a parabola, the equivalent uniform load caused by a tension in the cable is given by w L 2 /8 = P h where h is the drape for the cables. The drapes can be read from the table on page 1 The loads will not be uniform, but will be trapezoidal if the variation of prestress along the beam is taken into account In addition the moments due to eccentricity at the ends must be taken into account in the analysis if the cables are not exactly central. In our case we have assumed a 20mm eccentricity upwards at the end' The moment at the end of the 8m spans will be 2267 x.02 =56.7 knm The moment at the end of the 7m spans will be 1959 x.02 = 49.0kNm The loads given are for final prestress. Initial prestress (after friction and elastic losses) combined with deadload only may be a critical state, but it is probably sufficient to take the stresses due to final prestress and multiply them by an average factor.

It should be realised that as the loads are calculated for an interior span, the first interior column band should be reinforced for approximately a 7% greater load. i.e. for this design, 1 extra prestressing cable, and some additional reinforcement over the columns.

The tension to be taken by reinforcement is calculated by simply taking the force from the tensile stress diagram as in the sketch at a stress of 0.58 f v It should be noted that it is assumed that the moments are evenly distributed across the section. This is clearly incorrect kN /(.58 x 450) ->582sq.mm/m 180 To calculate the steel required to control crackwidth by a more logical method, the formula in BS8007 is used. Moments are taken about the level of the tension steel reinforcement, i.e. The required area of steel is given by calculating the tension required for a moment of M + P(d-h/2), and then reducing the tension by P. i.e. transferring the compressive force to the reinforcement level.. 75% of the total hogging moment and 55% of the total sagging moment should be taken in the column band for the purpose of calculating crackwidths The following table was calculated using a computer program for crackwidths to BS8007 It may be seen that areas are similar to the areas required for ultimate load, which supports the Report 25 stresses. SABS 0100 seems to give slightly higher areas if the tensile stress in the concrete is taken into account. Hogging moments are taken as 75% of total in column bands, and 55% for sagging moments The result is slightly more reinforcement in the position which requires more than nominal reinforcement Required area of reinforcement for cracking (0.15% = 315 sq.mm/m) Net.

See Appendix E) The areas are slightly greater than for the Report 25 Calculation (e.g Y16 at 200 or 1?0 as compared with Y12 at 180) Ultimate Load Limit State. 15% reduction of hogging moments ( with corresponding increase of sagging moments) is allowed and has been taken. The decompression moment, equal to the prestress x Z, is the moment required to reduce the compression on the extreme fibre to zero. If the applied moment (Ultimate dead + Live + prestress) is less than the decompression moment, no reinf. is required. If it is greater, an equivalent moment M' is calculated, by displacing the prestress to the level of the reinforcement, and adding a moment of P(d-h/2). The tension calculated from this moment then has the prestress force deducted, to obtain the net tension on the reinforcement M7Jd-P. The required steel area, is then (M;/Jd-P)/f s The ultimate M.R. of concrete = 4651 bd 2 = 126 knm for the 7m spans and 154 knm for the 8m spans. None of the design moments

Ultimate MR of section = 537x x.147= 453 knm It is also desirable to check the ultimate load case with half of the cables in the end span removed, with DL +.25 LL. in the end spans only. The MR due to half the number of cables may be taken as half the M.R. in the table above if Report 25 method is used, or the moments calculated for prestress may be halved and deducted from the moments for DL +.25LL The second method will be used Ult.

Taking the design moments as the serviceability moments, and taking the moments due to prestress into account, the moment at midspan of the 8 m 1st span is knm. i.e. cracked, and at the first internal support 290 knm Then I e midspan = 4.13 xl0-3 I Support = 3.26 x 10-3 using the service load moments calculated above The actual moment over the support is more concentrated, and there may be more cracking. The net equivalent M. of I. is then.85 x x 3.26 =4.0 The calculated deflection will then be 5.4/4.0 x the calculated one. Now the calculated deflection assumes that the slab acts as a band spanning in one direction, and neglects the span in the other direction. If one adds half the calculated deflection in the short direction to the calculated deflection in the long direction, this will probably be a reasonable estimate.

14 SAMPLE CALCULATION 2 Page 14 The total deflection is then ( ) x 5.4/4.0 = 31mm This is 1/223 of the short span, and may be acceptable if there are no rigid partitions. It should be noted that if there are reasons the slab might be more cracked, e.g. temperature stresses or shrinkage, the deflections could be considerably greater. Shear: The calculated ultimate shear at the first interior support ( at the face of the supports) is (from the computer calculations) kn (as compared to the simply supported load of kn). The shear assumed in the preliminary calculations was 860 kn The design shear is 1.15 times this, or 968. kn Alternatively, from the code, V eff = V t ( M/V t x) M t, the moment transmitted to the column, is knm, and x is x 1.5 (The column capital +1.5 slab depths) then V eff = x = kn From this may be deducted the vertical component of the prestressing cables At 1.06 m from the c/1 of column, the slope of the cables is.0529 from the properties of the parabola in the 8m span vertical component = 4/14x 2267 x.0529 =34 kn x 2 = 68 kn In the 7m span the slope is.0575 Component = 5/12 x.0525 x 2056 kn =44.9 kn x 2 =89.8 kn Total vert. component on 4 sides =157.8 kn and net design shear = =875 kn Area of reinforcement (Y10@200) in one direction, and 180 in the other. Average is 510 sq mm/m Average % = 100(1860 x 4,5 x 140.x 10" x1.71 x 10-6 x 450)/(1.71 x.21x 450) = 0.97% Permissible shear stress =.0.70 MPa Actual shear stress = 851/(4 x 2.04 x.167) =.63 MPa. Therefore no shear reinf. reqd At other columns, shear is less, and moment transferred to column is smaller. No shear reinforcement required. One should also calculate that the width of slab at the external columns is adequate to transfer the moment, but with Long's method, the moment transferred is quite small, and with the column capitals, it is not necessary.
