Design of slab : Two way slab design as per IS : 456 - 2000

Design of two way slab

The design of the RCC slab classified by the spanning as one way and two-way slab. 

We have calculated the one-way slab as per IS: 456-2000. now, we will calculate and the design of a two-way slab. 

To calculate the RCC slab manually is a lengthy process, I suggest to use tools, which will save time.

In this article, we will calculate all the necessary steps manually and provide a final reinforcement detail for a two-way slab.

Two-way slab

As we discussed in previous articles, the ratio of longer to shorter span is less than two and the slab is supported in all the four edges, then the slab is called a two-way slab.

The slab will bend in both the direction.

Design steps for two-way slab

The steps for designing the two-way slab is similar to the one-way slab design.

(1) Calculate the Effective depth and effective span.

(2) Calculate the total factored load on the slab.

(3) Calculate the mid span moment using the formula given in the Indian standard 456-2000 and Pages 90,91. and, check the effective depth for flexure.

(4) Calculate the steel percentage, area of required steel, and spacing of the bars along the shorter and the longer span and provide the reinforcement detail.

(5) Perform the checks for cracking, deflection, development length, and shear and draw a sketch.

Two-way slab design calculation

From our beam and column layout plan, we will calculate the longest slab, which is the slab S-7.

Slab layout

You can see the S-7 has a longer direction of 13.125 feet and a shorter direction of 12.75 feet in the given plan.

The use of the slab will be a bedroom. so, 2 kilonewtons per square meter will be taken as a live load.

In the design calculation, we will consider a 1-meter strip. which means b= 1000 m.

Data 

f_{ck = 20}

fy = 415

shorter span, lx = 3.89 m

longer span, ly  = 4 m

live load = 2 kN/ mm²

floor finish = 1 kN/ mm²

Effective depth

Ix = 3.89 m > 3.5 

live load = 2 kN/ mm²

If the shorter span is less than or equal to 3.5 and the live load is less than 3 then the following formula must be multiplied by 0.8

l/d = 20 X M.F ( IS: 456-2000, P.- 38,39)

Assume 0.3 % steel,

fy = 415 N/mm²

M.F = 1.5

3890/d = 20 X 1.5

d = 129.66 mm 

Provide, d = 135 mm

Provide, d = 135- 10 = 125 mm (for longer span)

( Assume, 10 mm dia. bars )

Overall depth, D = 135 + 5 + 20  

                          D = 160 mm

Effective span

( IS: 456-2000, P.- 34, CL. 22.2.a) 

For lx,

(1) clear span + d = 3890 + 135 = 4025 mm

(2) c/c of support = 3890 + 230 = 4120 mm

Whichever is smaller, 4025

For ly,

(1) clear span + d = 4000 + 125 = 4125 mm

(2) c/c of support = 4000 + 230 = 4230 mm

Whichever is smaller, 4125

Effective span for, 

lx = 4025 mm

ly = 4125 mm

Load calculation

(1) Dead load of slab = 0.160 X 25 = 4 kN/ mm²

(2) live load                  = 2 kN/ mm²

(3) floor finish              = 1 kN/ mm² 

total load = 4 + 2 + 1 = 7 kN/ mm² 

Factored load = 1.5 X 7 = 10.5 kN/ mm²
