Floor slab section.
Self weight of the column multiplies by number of floors.
Aci code direct design method and equivalent methods can be conveniently discussed in terms.
In this article we discuss the construction process thickness and cost of garage floor slab.
Section 9 5 3 of aci gives a set of equations and other guides to slab thickness and indicates that slabs which are equal to or thicker than the computed limits should have deflections within acceptable range at service load levels.
Upward soil pressures may be applied to the floor slab in situations where it is acting as a matt foundation and the building point loads on the foundation results in an upward pressure on the floor slab.
They can however be installed above the raft slab in the same arrangement as described.
The suspended reinforced concrete slab is tied into the external capping beam.
Floor slabs may also resist upward soil or hydrostatic pressure loadings.
Floor slab designing buildings wiki share your construction industry knowledge.
Columns transfer vertical loads from a ceiling floor or roof slab or from a beam to a floor or foundation.
They also carry bending moments about one or both of the cross section axes.
The mesh reinforcement in the slab is placed in the top with 1 covers.
The term floor slab usually refers to a floor that has been formed using concrete and generally steel reinforcement and may form part of the structure of a building.
When looking at them in section view i see a line representing the bottom of the floor as though the slab edge isn t there but this boundary line is thin.
Floor slab edge in section view i ve got a floor and a thickened slab edge.
Types of loads on columns.
For low rise buildings on poor ground the floor slab can be designed as a raft to act as the foundation.
The reinforced concrete floor slab is kept free of the perimeter walls.
While celotex pir boards have a good compressive strength they cannot be laid below a raft slab and take the structural load of the building.
Steel reinforced slabs typically between 100 and 500 mm thick are most often used to construct floors and ceilings while thinner mud slabs may be used for exterior paving see below in many domestic and industrial buildings a thick concrete slab supported on.
It will be typically reinforced either by rebar or steel fibres.
Steel deck profiled steel sheeting steel beam or joist cast in situ concrete topping top reinforcement mesh bottom reinforcement stud shear connectors restraint straps and edge trim.
The slab is constructed on well compacted granular fill crushed stone or marl.
A concrete slab is a common structural element of modern buildings consisting of a flat horizontal surface made of cast concrete.
