Choose the largest room in your house/apartment and measure the area.
Let's say the room is (8*4)
Steel yield stress (fy = 60000 psi)
Concrete ultimate compressive strength (f’c = 4000 psi)
Reinforced concrete density = 150 lb/ft3.
Normal weight concrete is used.
The slab is treated as a one way slab and subjected to a dead load of 120 psf (excluding the self-weight of the slab) and a live load of 220 psf.
a.The slab is supported by beams on the edges.
b.There is a column at each corner of the slab supporting the beams.
c.Each beam is sitting on a non-load-bearing wall.
Design
- The slab
- The beams
- The columns
Carry out all ACI code checks and sketch your designs.
